Low energy, semi automatic or fully automatic doors?

Low energy

Low energy swing doors require no safety sensors, as gentle movement will open and close them. In the event of pedestrian impact, the force wouldn’t be sufficient to cause injury (less than 67 newton metres of force).

The most cost effective option, low energy automatic doors are often installed in flats, residential dwellings and offices and are suitable for the less able-bodied with ambulatory difficulties, or wheelchair users.

Doors and entrances that require high traffic requirements can be fully or semi-automatic, so they do not inhibit the user.

Semi-automatic doors

Operating with higher forces, these doors will open and close much quicker. Semi-automatics operate with push pads and safety sensors, so when the door is approached the sensor prevents collision with the user. A push pad on a busy street will prevent a door from constantly opening and closing.

Fully automatic doors

Faster and with a greater force (up to 150n), safety sensors scan the area in front of the door looking for pedestrians and obstructions to prevent impact. Automatic swing door operators are rated for constant usage, and are suitable for high volume traffic in schools, colleges, shopping centres, hospitals, doctors surgeries and supermarkets.

Always insist on an automatic door that has been installed to BS EN16005:2012, which assures protective measures and tests for internal and external power operated pedestrian doorsets have been fulfilled.

Are automatic doors ideal for disabled access?

A good solution for access into and around buildings, an automatic door works in compliance with regulations set out by the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA).

Automatic Sliding doors are ideal for entrances that are subjected to heavy footfall and can be installed internally or externally, as single or bi-parting. Access controls with electric strike releases or mini mag locks provide additional security for certain applications and can be accessed with fobs, digital keypads or remote controls.

Automatic Swing door operators can be retrofitted to existing doors.
