The design and technology of automatic glass doors enhance architecture and add elegance and sophistication to any space. In addition to ease of access, glass doors allow for greater use of natural light and seamlessly integrate different spaces and environments.
Widely used in shopping centers, corporate buildings, airports, and hospitals, automatic glass doors are increasingly present in society and are even being applied in private residences. The reason for this continuous growth lies in the numerous advantages this product offers. Here are some of them:
Convenience
The fact that we don’t need to use our hands or exert any effort to open the door is very convenient. However, there is an even greater advantage behind this, called accessibility. This type of door facilitates access for the elderly, people with reduced mobility, or those with baby strollers, for example. This clearly demonstrates the establishment’s concern for these individuals, adding a positive image.
Visibility
One of the greatest advantages of glass is that it allows natural light to be fully utilised, even increasing the feeling of spaciousness. Its transparency creates a kind of ‘invisible wall’ that gives the feeling that the rooms are integrated, even if they are separate.
Security
Automatic glass doors are manufactured in accordance with quality and safety requirements and have a control system that locks the door when necessary. What’s more, because it’s made of glass, you can see all the visitors even before they enter the premises.
Some automatic doors also allow access to be controlled by magnetic card, digital reader, password or even biometric reader.
Hygiene and health
Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, automatic doors were presented as a hygiene and public health solution, as they eliminate the need for contact with surfaces and prevent the spread of microorganisms. The use of this solution in high-traffic public spaces, medical clinics and hospitals has become essential to avoid contamination.
It also reduces the amount of dust in the room, as it stays closed and only opens when necessary.
Accessibility
As we’ve already mentioned, the automatic door opening system guarantees total accessibility for people with reduced mobility, the elderly, the visually impaired and others with special needs. In many countries this type of treatment is compulsory, but in addition to being compulsory, thinking about people’s accessibility is a social responsibility that involves all of us!
