Automatic entrance doors Lynnwood: 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.

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. Because Lynnwood is on our doorstep in Gauteng, we respond fast for both installation and service – which matters when a public entrance goes down.

What to expect from Coetz Glazing

Every automatic entrance door project in Lynnwood 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 entrance door in Lynnwood ourselves, one accountable team handles the job from quote to aftercare, with operators, sensors and spares kept in stock for fast repairs.

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 entrance doors Lynnwood 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.

Matching the system to the traffic

Count the people, not the doors: one cycle is one open-and-close, so a doorway used by hundreds of people a day is doing far more work than the same doorway in a quiet office. That count, the opening width and the glass weight decide which system suits automatic entrance doors Lynnwood.

  • Single sliding for shops, receptions and clinics.
  • Bi-parting for malls, supermarkets and hospital corridors — openings up to 5000 mm.
  • Telescopic where the wall beside the opening is short.
  • Swing operators to automate an existing hinged door.

Survey and specification for automatic entrance doors Lynnwood

A survey for automatic entrance doors Lynnwood is short but specific: structural opening width and height, the condition and support of the head, what runs above the ceiling line, the power position, and how people actually approach the doorway. Those notes become the specification, and they are also what makes two quotations comparable instead of guesswork.

Do automatic doors work during load-shedding?

Only if that was specified. A battery backup keeps the door operating through a slot; without one, the door should be set to fail open or fail secure, with a manual release staff know how to use.

Can you automate a door we already have?

In most cases, yes — a swing operator such as the MCW-100 automates an existing hinged door up to 1,200 mm and 150 kg (interdependent).

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.

Estimating the traffic honestly

One cycle is one open-and-close, so a doorway used by 400 people a day is not doing 400 cycles — it is doing far more once deliveries, staff and trolleys are counted. Estimating that number before ordering is what separates an entrance that lasts from one that needs a call-out every few months, because the operator, the sensors and the service interval are all chosen against it.

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.

What glass comes as standard?

6.38 mm clear laminated safety glass, with tinted and performance options, quoted separately, where solar gain or privacy matters.

How quickly can a fault be attended?

Gauteng call-outs are attended within 24 hours, and service runs nationwide. Telling us the symptom when you call means the right spare travels with the technician.
