Can You Automate a Sliding Door?

If you're looking to improve accessibility and convenience in your business, automating your sliding doors is a great solution. But can you automate a sliding door that wasn't originally designed for automation?

The Process of Automating a Sliding Door

The process of automating a sliding door involves adding a motor and other components to the existing door system. This is typically done by a professional installer who has experience with automatic door systems.

The first step in the process is to assess the existing door system to determine whether it can be automated. In general, most sliding doors can be automated, but there are some exceptions. For example, if the door is in poor condition or has significant damage, it may not be possible to automate it.

Once the door has been assessed, the installer will then select the appropriate motor and other components for the door. This will depend on the size and weight of the door, as well as any additional features that are desired.

The motor and other components will then be installed on the door, along with any necessary wiring and controls. The installer will also test the door to ensure that it operates correctly and is safe for use.

The Benefits of Automating a Sliding Door

Automating a sliding door can provide a number of benefits for your business:

  • Improved Accessibility: An automatic sliding door can make it easier for people with mobility issues to enter and exit your business.
  • Increased Convenience: An automatic sliding door can provide a more convenient entrance for customers and employees, particularly when carrying items.
  • Enhanced Security: Automatic sliding doors can be equipped with security features such as motion sensors and automatic locks to improve the security of your business.
  • Energy Savings: Automatic sliding doors can be programmed to close automatically, reducing energy waste and lowering your utility bills.
