Retail

Automatic doors are the smart choice for any retail or high street chain. Excellent for stores that have a varied customer demographic from children, to the elderly or slow moving traffic and also those customers that have their hands full with push chairs or shopping bags. The ease of access provided by automatic doors could mean the difference between having that customer in your establishment or going to a competitor!

Automated shopfronts reflect the commitment to a high level of customer service. Improving the outward appearance of your business gives an impression of space and customer commitment.

They have a number of objectives;

Create a Positive First Impression

A good aesthetic.

Ease of Access for All Users

A number of factors affect the accessibility of the building, but this includes your customer demographic and the potential for low/medium/high risk customers present at site. To ensure that we meet the needs of all, for new installations a BS 7036-0 Risk assessment is completed to address the needs of both your customers and site, to offer the most effective operation and the safest possible environment.

As well as bulky items such as shopping trolleys and delivery pallets. Second, they have to create a positive first impression, welcoming customers and making them feel valued.

Work with the existing Facade

With many solutions available from narrow entrance doors to wide facades able to accommodate multiple sliding door operators we have the solution to accommodate your existing premises.

For example;

• Narrow entrance doors accommodate a bi-folding automatic door solution.
• Where space is no object automatic bi-parting sliding doors can be installed.
• Listed buildings mean that we are more limited in solutions that we can offer and automating the existing swing doors will likely be the best solution.

Accommodate the Footfall of Traffic

Designs and recommendations should accommodate the needs of the business and the traffic present at any one time. The choice of automatic door operator and activation devices are imperative where high traffic areas are present.

Safe and Compliant

Using a recommended ADSA-approved installer of automatic doors is a must in the UK. Doors are installed to a European Standard and compliance is key to the safety offered.  A reputable installer may not be as ‘cheap’ as another company, but they will likely be using products fit for the UK market and BS EN 16005 standard. Improved safety devices generally mean improved operation which in turn is likely to reduce both the operating costs and maintenance costs over the course of the installation.

At Automatic Access we can design and install your automatic entrance system for your retail business that will address your requirements. No matter how big your store or how high your customer footfall, we can provide you with a bespoke solution that’s tailored to meet your specific needs.
