Ford Transit Electric Sliding Door – Modifero SafetyEdge+ System
With the Modifero Mod-03 SafetyEdge+ System, the existing manual sliding door of a Ford Transit (2014–present) can be converted into a convenient electrically operated sliding door.
The vehicle-specific system has been developed for professional vehicle conversions and reliable daily use in campervans, motorhomes, minibuses, shuttle vehicles and commercial vans. The mechanical and electronic components are adapted to the requirements of the Ford Transit platform.
🛡️ SafetyEdge+ – Active Anti-Pinch Protection as Standard
For SafetyEdge+ systems intended for the European market, the Active Safety Edge is included as standard. If an obstacle is detected during closing, the system controller responds accordingly and helps protect people and objects in the door area.
Comfortable Closing Without Forceful Manual Sliding
The large side sliding door of the Ford Transit can require considerable effort during manual operation. The Modifero electric system controls the door movement and provides smooth motorized opening and closing, offering additional convenience for professional vehicle use as well as campervan and motorhome applications.
Professional Ford Transit Electric Sliding Door Conversion
The Mod-03 system uses a twin-motor drive and has been developed to automate the vehicle's existing sliding door. Vehicle-specific mechanical components enable integration into compatible Ford Transit models.
The system operates with the vehicle's 12 V electrical system. An electronic control unit (ECU) coordinates door movement together with the connected control and safety functions.
ECE R10 EMC-Certified Electronics
The Mod-03 system uses the Modifero Electronic Control Platform with ECE R10 EMC-certified electronics. The electronic control components are designed and certified for electromagnetic compatibility in automotive applications and support reliable integration with the electrical architecture of the Ford Transit.
For professional vehicle builders and B2B projects: The Mod-03 SafetyEdge+ system is suitable for shuttle vehicles, passenger transport, campervans, motorhomes, fleets and various special-purpose vehicle applications based on the Ford Transit. Vehicle-specific mechanical components are combined with the Modifero Electronic Control Platform. Requirements and regulations applicable to the completed vehicle and its intended use remain the responsibility of the vehicle builder, installer and/or operator.
