As the world returns to work, automated door systems could play an important role in lowering the risk of infection. Automated door opening ensures that there is no contact upon exit or entry of internal and external entrances and are a popular choice within schools, health centers, hospitals, shops, and office buildings.

In this blog, we’ll look at some of our automated door options to help reduce contact and slow the spread of Covid-19.

Automated Sliding Doors

Our automatic doors have a range of new automation systems for swing doors and are available in a range of models and finishes to meet market requirements and ensure touch free door opening.

Uniquely the door open and shut as standard with an integral spring to close the door in case of power failure. This is especially useful with heavy security doors or access control applications with electric locking and an integral spring opening system incise of power failure.

We understand it’s not only about increasing safety and reducing contact with door handles but also finding the right door solution for your market’s needs.

Touchless Switches for Easy Door Opening

The major benefit of utilizing touchless activation is the reduced hand contact with outside door handles, something we are all seeking to reduce as lockdown restrictions are eased.

Even if an individual were to come into contact with the door pad, our anti-microbial finishes which are on a number of our switches ensure that bacteria and viruses, including Covid-19, will not survive, bringing you peace of mind.

With anti-bacterial switches sense activation from up to 50mm away, there is no need for contact with the door pad whatsoever.

Anti-Microbial Switches

We stock a range of switches with anti-microbial finishes using contactless technology. The results of touchless technology are tested in an independent laboratory and proven to be at least 99.9% effective.

The door pad switches are non-scratch, non-porous and anti-reflective to control the growth and transmission of bacteria.
