The Mat Mover® Systems
Specify 1100 Series - Stationary Mat Mover® Twin Two-Motor System
Specify No. 91101-100 - Holds up to One 45' x 45' Mat
Specify No. 91101-200 - Holds up to Two 45' x 45' Mat
You have two wrestling mats and the season is over… or the wrestling room
is needed for a meeting… or a multitude of events transpire during the course
of the school year in this multi-purpose, wrestling room-gymnasium. What do you
do with the wrestling mats? Store them in the least expensive storage area of
the school, Overhead! The Mat Mover® by Porter is the safest and
most economical way to move and store wrestling mats.
Not only will the Mat Mover® return valuable floor space to be better utilized; it will eliminate the dangerous, heavy and awkward lifting by students and coaches. Mats will be protected during transit and while in their storage position.
The Mat Mover® two motor system is advantageous for many installation situations, requiring minimal structure for attaching to sloped roofs. A traditional one motor system would require extensive structure to level the unit or cradle under the ductwork.

- Two Heavy-Duty 1-Horsepower Hoists
- Two Electric Brakes
- Micrologix® Controller to Provide Self-Leveling and System Monitoring
- Audible Motion Alarm will Alert Athletes when Unit is in Motion
- Watchdog Timers
- Main Disconnect Switch on Control Panel
- Momentary Safety Key Switch with the Dual-Key Feature for Added Safety
- Power requirement: choose from 208 volt, 230 volt, and 460 volt in 3 phase, 60hz.

Traveling Mat Mover®
Specify 1100 Series – Traveling Mat Mover®
An Ideal Way to Transport and Store Mats!
The traveling Mat Mover® is an ideal storage system which lifts and transports
mats to and from balcony storage, second level wrestling rooms or simply moves
the mats from above spectator seating areas. The traveling unit can transport
from one (1) to three (3) 14' x 42' mats or one (1) 45' x 45' mat, depending upon
your needs. Each unit is available in “end first” travel or “sideways”
travel, to accommodate virtually any facility requirement.
Traveling Mat Mover® Features
- Fully Welded Steel Ladder Frame Carriage
- Flashing Red Strobe Light and Audible Motion Alarm will Alert Athletes when Unit is in Motion
- Control panel includes a main disconnect switch, control circuit transformer with primary & secondary protection, two (2) full voltage reversing contractors with motor circuit protection, and relay lockout to prevent unit from traveling horizontally when in the down position.

Motion Alarm System
For the utmost in safety an audible motion alarm sounds when the system is in
motion. This is a great feature to increase athlete's awareness when mats are
being moved in and out of storage.
Watchdog Timer
Watchdog timer, a back-up safety system to each hoist unit’s self-monitoring
system, is activated each time the Mat Mover® is used. Should the self-monitoring
system turn off for any reason, the watchdog timers will “time-out”,
shutting down the entire system. It’s the same as having a guard on duty
24 hours a day!
