Accessible entrances in Hazyview

An automatic door is the simplest way to make an entrance usable for a wheelchair user, a parent with a pram or someone carrying stock. Opening width, opening speed, hold-open time and the sensor field are set on site for the people who actually use the door, and push buttons can be added where a door should only open on request. See automatic doors for disabled access.

Common faults on automatic doors Hazyview

Humidity on electronics, storms and insects in sensors. See automatic door sensor not working.

Most faults are cleared on the first visit because our technicians carry common spares. Where a door is beyond economic repair, we quote a new operator on the existing leaves first, before a full replacement. See automatic door lifespan.

Working on site in Hazyview

Hotels want work outside peak tourist seasons. Every job starts with a safe-work method, and the doorway is barricaded while it is open.

Servicing automatic doors Hazyview

Hotel and centre entrances are serviced against cycles on planned visits.

Every visit ends with a written record, and several doors or buildings can sit under one service level agreement. Safety settings are re-checked on every visit; see automatic door safety requirements and the South African Bureau of Standards.

How we support automatic doors Hazyview

Hazyview is served from our Laser Park base in Johannesburg. Planned installation and servicing visits are batched across Mpumalanga to keep travel down, and breakdown attendance is agreed in writing for each site, against what a failure costs you.

  • Our own technicians install, commission and service the doors. We do not sub-contract the work.
  • Our technicians are trained on our own operators and on other manufacturers’ operators. See automatic door technician.

Automatic doors Hazyview by building type

The buildings in Hazyview set the specification more than anything else. These are the starting points we use for each type, before every doorway is confirmed on site.

Hotel and venue entrances in Hazyview

Hotels and conference venues want a quiet, warm lobby and an entrance that copes with guests carrying luggage and delegates arriving in groups. Automatic doors Hazyview hotels use are wide sliding doors with a night mode that admits guests by card, or a revolving door with a swing door beside it where wind and draughts are a problem. Opening speed is set for the busiest moments, such as a conference break.

Retail entrances in Hazyview

Shop and centre entrances are judged on two things: they must never stop trading, and they must lock tight at closing. For automatic doors Hazyview retailers use, we fit bi-parting sliding doors with a wide clear opening for trolleys and prams, a night lock that throws automatically when the centre closes, and sensors set so that people walking past the shopfront do not keep opening the door and letting the air-conditioning out. Busy entrances get a service interval based on cycles, not months.

Healthcare entrances in Hazyview

Healthcare buildings need hands-free entry for patients in wheelchairs, on crutches and on stretchers, and doors that never trap anyone. For automatic doors Hazyview clinics and hospitals use, we set slow closing speeds, long hold-open times and a wide sensor field, fit battery backup so the entrance keeps working through load shedding, and use hermetically sealed doors where theatres or isolation rooms need an air seal.

Office receptions in Hazyview

An office reception sees staff, visitors and couriers all day and needs to stay controlled. Automatic doors Hazyview offices use are normally sliding doors linked to the building’s card, tag or biometric readers, with a free-entry mode in office hours and controlled entry after hours. The door releases on the fire signal, and it can be set to stay locked during a panic event while still allowing escape from inside.

Restaurant and food fronts in Hazyview

Restaurants and coffee shops want a front that shows the interior and an entrance that opens smoothly for diners and staff with full hands. We usually fit frameless sliding doors, set the sensors so that pavement traffic does not trigger the door, and add a lock that staff throw with a key switch at closing.

How we deal with conditions in Hazyview

The four things that wear an entrance in Hazyview are shown in the first diagram. This is what we do about each of them on automatic doors Hazyview.

Condition in Hazyview What we do
Storms Storms bring wind, driving rain and, inland, hail; coastal sites add salt. We set sensors to ignore blowing leaves, use laminated or toughened safety glass, add surge protection where lightning is common and consider a revolving door where wind drives through a lobby.

Sliding, swing or revolving: choosing automatic doors Hazyview

Most entrances in Hazyview are one of three types. The right one depends on the opening, the traffic and the people who use the door.

Door type Best for Operator
Sliding (single or bi-parting) Busy main entrances, malls, hospitals, offices MC-125
Telescopic sliding Wide openings where the wall space is short MC-125 telescopic
Swing Corridors, toilets, existing doors, low traffic MCW-100
Revolving Tall or windy lobbies, energy saving Revolving system
Hermetic sliding Theatres, laboratories, clean rooms Hermetic system

Sliding doors move the most people and suit most automatic doors Hazyview main entrances. Swing doors suit narrow openings and existing doors. Revolving doors keep wind and heat loss out of a lobby but always need a swing door beside them for wheelchairs and goods. See automatic sliding doors, automatic swing doors and automatic revolving doors.

How an automatic doors Hazyview project runs

  1. Photographs and measurements. You send the opening, a photograph and how busy the door is; we confirm the door type.
  2. Site visit. A technician checks the header, the floor, the power supply and the access-control connection.
  3. Written quotation. The configuration, the price and the lead time are confirmed in writing before anything is ordered.
  4. Installation. Our own team installs the operator and leaves, usually in a day for a standard entrance, keeping one door working where possible.
  5. Commissioning. Speeds, hold-open times, sensors and locking are set for the users, and the safety sensors are tested.
  6. Handover and service plan. You get a record of the settings and a service interval based on how busy the door is.

Most automatic doors Hazyview installations in Gauteng are completed within two to three weeks of the order, depending on glass and leaves. Repairs and replacement operators are usually faster because the spares are in Laser Park.

Maintaining automatic doors Hazyview

An automatic door is a machine that opens and closes thousands of times a week. Regular servicing keeps it safe and avoids most breakdowns. On every service of automatic doors Hazyview we:

  • Clean and check the track, rollers and guides.
  • Check the belt, motor, gearbox and controller.
  • Test the activation and safety sensors, and re-aim them if needed.
  • Check the locking, the battery backup and the power-failure behaviour.
  • Record the cycle count and the settings, and report anything that needs attention.

See the automatic door maintenance checklist and automatic door servicing.

Safety settings on automatic doors Hazyview

Safety sensors stop or reverse a door before it touches anyone, and the opening and closing forces are limited. We set and test these on commissioning and on every visit, and we can add signage and markings so that people can see the glass. See automatic door signage.

The door releases on the fire signal and can be set to lock during a panic event while still letting people out. See automatic door access control and automatic door security.

Power failures and fire release

Every automatic doors Hazyview entrance is commissioned with a defined behaviour for a power failure and for a fire alarm: open and stay open, close and lock, or keep running on battery backup. The choice is agreed with the building owner and its fire strategy and recorded at handover, then tested on every service. See automatic door power.
