Automatic sliding doors are used in many residential and public applications to seamlessly grant access to people.  We encounter sliding doors daily at the entrances to businesses and shopping centres.  Entraway installs sliding doors.

Automatic sliding doors remain closed at all times and only open when traffic approaches.  This makes it easier for the building’s air conditioning system to maintain the climate, saving significantly on electricity.  Most of these doors open when an infrared beam is broken.  A low-power microwave radar sensor works in much the same way.  Other doors open when someone activates a pressure sensor by stepping on the doormat.  They may also be manually operated by security guards, or via electronic key cards.
