Automate a pair of commercial swing doors with a dependable, accessible automatic opening solution. Automatic Door and Hardware offersMaverick HA8LP and Maverick HA8SPautomatic swing door operators for double-door applications, providing solutions for hollow metal steel doors, commercial wood doors, storefront doors, and other commercial pedestrian entrances.
A double automatic door opener converts a pair of conventional commercial swing doors into an automatically operated entrance. A dual-door system utilizes automatic operators to control both door leaves, allowing the pair to open automatically when the system receives an activation signal.
Activation can be provided by handicap push buttons, wireless push plates, compatible contactless devices, or access control equipment. Once activated, the operators automatically open the doors, maintain the programmed hold-open period, and then control the closing cycle.
Our Maverick double-door opener lineup gives contractors, facility managers, building owners, and door professionals solutions for both standard commercial entrances and demanding high-traffic openings. Maverick offers two distinct operator platforms for double-door applications: the HA8LP and HA8SP.
The Maverick HA8LP double-door configuration is designed for commercial door pairs where a clean, compact automatic operator profile is desired. Its streamlined design provides a professional appearance while allowing both leaves of a commercial double-door opening to be automatically operated.
The HA8LP can be configured for a variety of commercial double-door applications using the appropriate arms, activation equipment, and compatible locking hardware for the opening.
For demanding double-door entrances, theMaverick HA8SP provides an ultra heavy-duty automatic swing door solution engineered for high-traffic commercial applications. The HA8SP is designed for larger and heavier doors and can accommodate individual door leaves weighing up to550 lb.
Its heavy-duty drive system, permanently lubricated construction, high-precision gearing, adjustable spring tension, and plug-and-play design make the HA8SP an excellent solution for commercial door pairs where durability and consistent operation are priorities.
Commercial double-door openings are used throughout virtually every type of commercial facility. We offer automatic double-door opener solutions for several common door constructions. The correct operator configuration, arms, mounting arrangement, activation devices, and locking hardware will depend on the specific opening.
In a typical low-energy double-door installation, an activation device sends an opening signal to the automatic door system. The operators then power the door leaves through the opening cycle, hold the doors open for the programmed period, and control the closing cycle.
Depending on the application, the entrance can be activated using wireless handicap push buttons, hardwired push plates, contactless activation devices, or compatible access control equipment. Electric strikes and other compatible locking devices can also be incorporated when automatic unlocking is required.
Both Maverick platforms provide solutions for double automatic swing door applications, but they are designed around different installation demands.

Double commercial doors can require different automatic operator configurations depending on the handing and intended movement of each door leaf. A properly configured system allows the operators, activation equipment, and compatible locking hardware to work together as a complete entrance.
The Maverick platform can accommodate conventional double-door applications as well as specialized configurations where the door handing and direction of travel require different operator arrangements. The HA8SP is also available for dual-egress applications.
Automatic swing door operators are commonly installed to improve accessibility and make commercial entrances easier to use. Double automatic doors can provide a wide, convenient entrance for wheelchair users, pedestrians carrying materials, carts, and other building occupants who may benefit from automatic operation.
Activation plates can be positioned so users can activate the entrance before reaching the doors. The Maverick automatic door opener platform is designed for low-energy commercial swing door applications. Final installation, adjustment, activation device placement, door hardware, and operation must be appropriate for the specific opening and applicable requirements.
A double automatic door system involves more than the operators themselves. Automatic Door and Hardware offers configurations that can combine the Maverick operators with activation and locking hardware appropriate for the application.
