Automatic entrance doors Vanderbijlpark: 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 Vanderbijlpark chooses automatic entrances

Reliable automatic entrances here use robust, dust-sealed operators and quality sensors built for demanding conditions.

Working with Coetz Glazing
Every automatic entrance door project in Vanderbijlpark 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 Vanderbijlpark ourselves, one accountable team handles the job from quote to aftercare, with operators, sensors and spares kept in stock for fast repairs.
Servicing, spares and call-outs
We recommend a professional service every six months, with more frequent visits for very busy entrances such as malls. A visit checks and realigns the sensors, inspects the belt, rollers and guides, re-checks opening and closing force, and replaces wear parts before they strand the door. Wear items are replaced as part of servicing rather than under warranty.
We stock the operators, sensors, drive belts and control boards we fit, so a repair does not wait on an imported part. Automatic doors are installed and serviced nationwide, with call-outs within 24 hours in Gauteng.
How automatic entrance doors Vanderbijlpark is priced
Four things move the number: how wide the opening is, what glass it carries, how many sensors the layout needs, and whether access control is included. That is why we confirm the opening, the power supply and the traffic flow at a free site measure and then quote a fixed price. Standard glazing is 6.38 mm laminated safety glass, powder-coated framing to match the frontage.
Sensors, safety and commissioning
An entrance is only as good as its sensors. Motion sensors open the door as somebody approaches and see movement rather than a standing person; presence sensors hold it open while somebody is in the opening, which is what stops a door closing on a person who has paused. Safety beams and a force limit reverse the leaf if something is in the way.
Commissioning sets opening and closing speed, hold-open time, force and the safety zones either side, and the settings are written down at handover so anyone adjusting the door later can see what it was signed off at.
How often should the door be serviced?
Every six months as standard. A supermarket door doing thousands of cycles a day may need more frequent visits than a quiet office entrance.
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.
Upgrading an existing entrance
An existing doorway can usually be automated without rebuilding the frontage. A swing operator suits a hinged door that is staying put; a sliding installation replaces a tired frontage and gives a wider, cleaner opening. The deciding factors are the strength of the head, the squareness of the opening and the route for power.
Reading the symptoms
Most faults on automatic entrance doors Vanderbijlpark are diagnosable before anybody arrives. A door held permanently open is usually a sensor fault or something moving in its detection zone. A door that reverses halfway is reacting to an obstruction or a tight force setting. Noise from the track points to rollers or guides. Telling us the symptom on the phone means the right part is on the van.
Glass, frames and finishes
Standard glazing is 6.38 mm clear laminated safety glass, which holds together if it is ever broken and takes the edge off outside noise. Tinted and performance glass are available, quoted separately, where solar gain or privacy matters, and toughened glass suits frameless and low-level applications. The framing is powder-coated in the colour that suits the building, so an entrance reads as part of the frontage rather than something bolted on afterwards.
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.
What happens when we report a fault?
We take the symptom over the phone so the right part is loaded, then attend — within 24 hours in Gauteng and within 48 hours elsewhere.
