You should carefully consider what automatic door to get, depending on the reasoning. You need to be able to match the correct requirements, depending on who you are expecting to use it.
One choice is a low energy door. These swing doors don’t need safety sensors to be fitted, due to only needing to move gently and slowly to operate, with the force being unlikely to harm anyone. Financially, this is probably the more cost efficient, but it shouldn’t be the main consideration. These doors are suitable for residential homes that have people with mobility issues or those who use wheelchairs.
If you have a high traffic property then you may consider a semi or fully automatic door that is quicker and does not hinder any one going through. A semi-automatic door uses more force, therefore opening and closing more quickly. They have push pads and sensors fitted for safety, therefore if someone approaches the door, they will not collide with it. The push pad will stop the door from constantly moving when people walking by are detected, which is what generally happens with a fully automatic door.
If you are considering a fully automatic door, they are quicker than the other options, with a larger force to help operate them. Their sensors pinpoint any obstructions or people, making safety a priority. These types of doors are commonly used in schools, shops, doctors and hospitals. These buildings tend to have heavy traffic constantly going to and fro, so by keeping the doors automatic it makes it easier to keep on top of things, particularly if the person using it has their hands full.
