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.

Revolving doors may be preferred in applications where other types of automatic doors are not suitable. In very cold or windy places, revolving doors present a more elegant
access solution at public places.
The main reason for this is that revolving doors completely eliminate drafts.
Automatic sliding doors let in wind every time they open, unless an expensive double door solution is used. Revolving doors maintain a constant seal on at least two of their “wings” at any given time, permitting the wind no direct path into the building. Three- and
four-wing revolving doors are available that are suitable for a wide variety of applications.
