Introduction

In the bustling world of architecture and design, automatic doors stand as silent sentinels, welcoming visitors with open arms (or rather, open panels). These marvels of engineering combine technology, convenience, and safety to redefine the way we move in and out of buildings. Whether you’re stepping into a shopping mall, a hotel lobby, or a healthcare facility, automatic doors provide a seamless and efficient experience. Let’s explore what makes them so remarkable.

Sliding automatic doors are the most common type. They consist of sleek glass panels that glide horizontally when triggered by sensors.

Features

1. Smooth and Silent Operation: Sliding doors move effortlessly, creating an unobtrusive entrance.
2. Energy Efficiency: The tight seals around the panels prevent air leakage, contributing to energy savings.
3. High-Traffic Areas: Sliding doors are ideal for places with heavy footfall.

1. Supermarkets: Picture sliding doors opening gracefully as shoppers enter with their carts.
2. Airports: Efficient entry and exit points for travelers.
3. Retail Stores: Welcoming shoppers into a world of products.
