Questions about automatic doors in Johannesburg? Call 010 412 0062 or WhatsApp 076 613 4418 and our team will help. Before quoting automatic doors in Johannesburg, we check the opening, the power supply and the traffic, then give a fixed price.
For automatic doors in Johannesburg, MC Automations, our parent company, handles installation and servicing, with installation included in Gauteng.
What to expect from Coetz Glazing
Every automatic door project in Johannesburg starts with a free site measure, so we can confirm the opening, the power supply and the traffic flow before quoting a fixed price.
We build each entrance around a durable aluminium frame, glaze it with 6.38mm laminated safety glass, and set the operator to safe opening and closing speeds during commissioning.
Because we supply, install and service every automatic door in Johannesburg ourselves, one accountable team handles the job from quote to aftercare, with operators, sensors and spares kept in stock for fast repairs.
Why aluminium is the right choice
For automatic doors Johannesburg, aluminium is the material that lasts. It will not rust, warp or rot, it shrugs off the South African sun, and it needs almost no maintenance beyond an occasional wipe-down.
Our frames are powder-coated in any colour, from crisp white and charcoal to bronze and natural anodised finishes, so the frames match the architecture instead of fighting it. Slim sightlines let in more glass and more daylight.
Every unit is glazed with 6.38mm laminated safety glass as standard, which improves security, cuts outside noise and holds together if it is ever broken. Double glazing and performance glass are available where thermal comfort matters.
We build automatic door packages to your exact opening sizes for buildings across Johannesburg, with the MC-125 operator assembled in South Africa at our Laser Park, Johannesburg facility — so there is no waiting on imported stock and no compromise on fit. Large and repeat orders are planned and delivered on schedule.
From a single building to a full development, Coetz supplies, installs and services what we make. One accountable team, one point of contact, and a 24-month warranty on the operator.

Backup power and access control
Battery backup, fail-open or fail-secure behaviour and the manual release are decisions about the building, not the operator, so they belong in the specification for automatic doors Johannesburg from the start. The same is true of access control — readers, buttons, intercoms and time clocks all interrupt or enable the operator, and retro-fitting them is mostly cable and ceiling work.
Choosing the right configuration
A single sliding leaf suits a shop door or a reception; a bi-parting pair moves the same opening in half the travel, which is why malls, supermarkets and hospital corridors use it. Where the wall beside the opening is too short for the leaves to park, a telescopic arrangement stacks them. Hinged doors are automated instead with a swing operator.
- MC-125 sliding: up to 150 kg single leaf or 2 × 120 kg bi-parting, 1450–5000 mm clear opening.
- MCW-100 swing: fits an existing hinged door up to 1,200 mm and 150 kg (interdependent), push-arm or pull-arm.
- Both are tested to one million operating cycles and carry a 2-year manufacturer warranty on the operator.
Getting the opening right for automatic doors Johannesburg
Most trouble with a powered entrance starts at the opening, not the operator. We measure the structural opening, confirm the head can carry the load, look for anything above it that competes for space, and establish where the power comes in. An operator fixed to an inadequate head is the single most common cause of early call-outs, and it is entirely avoidable at survey stage.
Is installation available nationwide?
Yes — installation and service cover the country, with a technician on site within 24 hours in Gauteng and within 48 hours elsewhere.
What happens when the power goes off?
With the optional battery backup the door keeps running through a slot. Without it, the door parks in the fail-open or fail-secure state you chose, and can be released by hand.
Comfort, access and energy
A door that opens only when it is needed keeps conditioned air inside and dust and noise out, which is the practical argument for automation beyond convenience. Set the hold-open time for the slowest user rather than the fastest, add presence detection so nobody is caught in the opening, and the entrance works for everybody who uses the building.
Sizing against real use
Before anything is ordered we work out roughly how many cycles the doorway will see in a day. That figure drives the operator choice, the sensor layout and the service interval. It is also the honest way to compare quotations: two prices for the same opening mean very little if one was specified for light use and the other for constant public traffic.
What to send us for a quote
A useful quotation needs very little: the structural opening width and height, a photograph of the doorway taken square-on, a note of what is above the opening, and a rough idea of daily traffic. Tell us whether access control or a battery backup is wanted and the quote comes back complete rather than caveated.
- Structural opening width and height in millimetres.
- A square-on photograph of the doorway and what sits above it.
- Rough daily traffic, including deliveries.
- Whether access control, intercom or battery backup is wanted.
- Any deadline the entrance has to meet.
Can we add card readers or an intercom?
Yes. They are far cheaper included with the original installation than retro-fitted, because the cable route is open while the header is being fitted.
Can the hold-open time be changed?
Yes — it is adjustable at commissioning and afterwards, which is how sites run a longer hold during deliveries and a shorter one at quiet times.
