Radars and sensors for glass doors: safety and efficiency

In the modern world, where security and efficiency are unquestionable priorities, the integration of advanced technologies is essential. As a result, Automatic Glass Doors have become increasingly popular in various spaces such as stores, offices, hospitals and hotels. This type of doors offers a series of advantages that make them an increasingly obvious choice for owners, designers and users.

However, ensuring the security and efficiency of these doors can be challenging. In this article, we explore the advantages of using automatic glass doors and how Motorline radars and sensors offer a comprehensive solution to optimize both the safety and efficiency of glass doors.

What are the advantages of using Motorline Automatic Glass Doors?

Convenient and functional access

Automatic glass doors provide a convenient way of entry, eliminating the need to manually push or pull the door. This makes access easier for everyone, including the elderly, children and people with reduced mobility.

Equipped with motion sensors, these doors open automatically when someone approaches, creating an obstacle-free environment and reducing the risk of accidents.

More efficient and sustainable spaces

One of the great advantages of Automatic Glass Doors is their ability to improve the energy efficiency of buildings. With quick opening and closing, energy wastage is avoided, this helps maintain a stable internal temperature and reduces air conditioning costs.

Natural Light and Transparency

They provide excellent visibility and transparency. Transparent glass allows a clear view of what is on the other side of the door, which is especially important in commercial establishments, where product display is essential to attract customers.

Additionally, the visibility offered by glass doors can increase the feeling of security by allowing people to see who is outside.

Modern design

Aesthetically pleasing, Automatic Glass Doors can enhance the design and appearance of a space. The clear glass gives a feeling of modernity and elegance, creating a welcoming atmosphere for visitors.

Durable and Easy Maintenance

Lastly, Automatic Glass Doors are durable and easy to maintain. The high-resistance glass used in these doors is designed to withstand frequent use, resisting scratches and impacts.

Furthermore, maintenance is generally simple, involving regular cleaning of the glass and periodic checking of mechanical components.

Motorline has several solutions for Automatic Glass Doors, discover the offer by visiting the product catalogue.

As seen previously, automatic doors offer a series of advantages. However, to ensure safe and efficient operation, it is essential to integrate specialized radars and sensors.

Importance of radars and sensors for glass doors

Radars and sensors play a fundamental role in the safety and efficiency of glass doors. Its importance lies mainly in its ability to detect the presence of objects and people close to the doors, which allows safe and convenient operation.

When sensing someone approaching, the sensors can cause the doors to open automatically, ensuring a smooth transition and avoiding possible collisions. Furthermore, these sensors can be programmed to detect the presence of people and regulate the environment, which helps to keep the space safe and save energy effectively.

Safety and efficiency of radars and sensors for glass doors

Radars and sensors for glass doors can offer a combination of security and efficiency when implemented correctly.

1. Security

Object and People Detection: sensors can detect objects and people approaching doors, preventing collisions and accidents.
Trap Prevention: force sensors can detect if someone is trapped between the glass doors, triggering the automatic opening or reversing of the doors to avoid injuries.

2. Efficiency

Automatic opening: Ability to automatically open doors when someone approaches can improve traffic flow efficiency, especially in busy locations.
Energy Saving: presence sensors can be used to control the operation of doors and air conditioning systems, reducing energy waste in less frequented areas.
