Oxley Automated Access Doors

Safe and efficient building access.

Automated Access Doors

Perfect for busy entrances and also throughout a building, swing doors are perfect where space is limited and bi-part sliding doors are frequently used in lobbies.

Automatic entrance systems provide a safe, efficient and convenient means of access and egress to a building. Access doors should be so designed as to permit operation by one person in a single motion with little effort. Power-operated doors are preferred for people with disabilities.

Automatic Doors

Can be of the sliding or swinging type. In general sliding doors are preferable to swinging doors.

  • Automatic doors are useful when traffic is heavy
  • Automatic doors should have an adequate opening interval
  • Guard-rails can be installed near double swinging doors to indicate a door opening area and to prevent people from being hit by the door
