Automatic entrance doors Klerksdorp: the options
Most powered entrances fall into a few types. Sliding units handle the highest foot traffic; swing operators automate hinged doors; telescopic doors give a wide clear opening in a narrow wall; and heavy-duty commercial doors are built for constant public use.
- Automatic sliding doors – the everyday shopfront and mall choice.
- Automatic swing doors – a cost-effective upgrade for offices and hinged doors.
- Telescopic sliding doors – a wide opening within a tight wall.
- Bi-parting commercial doors – hospitals, malls and campuses.
The right choice balances traffic, opening width, safety and the look of the frontage. See our full automatic sliding doors guide for how the technology works.
Why Klerksdorp chooses automatic entrances
Klerksdorp is a gold-mining city in the City of Matlosana, on the dry North West highveld where dust and heat test any entrance. Reliable automatic entrances here use robust, dust-sealed operators and quality sensors built for busy commercial and mining sites. Automation also improves accessibility, keeps conditioned air inside, and gives retail and offices a professional, hands-free welcome.

Tips for a smooth project
Confirm the power supply and opening size early, and add battery backup so the door works through load-shedding. Ask about warranty on the operator, whether a service plan is included, and how quickly call-outs are answered in your area. Given the dusty mining-belt air, choose robust, dust-sealed operators and quality sensors from the start – it costs a little more up front and saves a lot in call-outs.

Which door type suits the opening
Traffic and wall space decide the layout for automatic entrance doors Klerksdorp. Single sliding is the everyday shopfront answer; bi-parting halves the travel and handles the busiest public entrances; telescopic stacks the leaves where there is not enough wall to park them; and a swing operator automates a hinged door you already have.
- MC-125 sliding: single leaf to 150 kg, or bi-parting 2 × 120 kg, openings 1450–5000 mm.
- MCW-100 swing: existing hinged doors to 1,200 mm / 150 kg (interdependent).
- Tested to one million operating cycles, 2-year manufacturer warranty on the operator.
Getting the opening right for automatic entrance doors Klerksdorp
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.
Keeping automatic entrance doors Klerksdorp working through a power cut
South African entrances have to answer a question most overseas specifications ignore. An optional battery backup keeps the operator running through a slot; without one, the door should be set to fail open or fail secure to suit the building, with a manual release your staff know how to use. If card readers, intercoms or a time clock are wanted, specify them now rather than cutting into a finished ceiling later.
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.
Can an existing hinged door be automated?
Usually yes. The MCW-100 swing operator fits an existing hinged door up to 1,200 mm and 150 kg (interdependent), with push-arm and pull-arm options.
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.
Making the entrance work for everybody
Hands-free access matters most to the people who find doors hardest: wheelchair users, parents with prams, delivery staff with both hands full. For automatic entrance doors Klerksdorp we set hold-open time against how quickly people really move through the opening, and presence detection holds the door for anyone who pauses. A push-pad or a wave switch can be added where staff want manual control.
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.
Can we choose a different glass?
Yes. The standard is 6.38 mm laminated safety glass, and tinted, obscured or performance glass can be specified, and is quoted separately, where the frontage needs it.
Can access control be added later?
It can, but cabling into a finished ceiling costs more than specifying it with the door. Readers, push buttons, intercoms and time clocks are all straightforward at installation stage.
