Accessible entrances in Zeerust
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 Zeerust
Dust in tracks, heat and round-the-clock use. See automatic door power.
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 Zeerust
Hospitals keep one entrance open while we work. Every job starts with a safe-work method, and the doorway is barricaded while it is open.
Servicing automatic doors Zeerust
Shop and hospital 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.

- Our own technicians install, commission and service the doors. We do not sub-contract the work.

Automatic doors Zeerust by building type
The buildings in Zeerust set the specification more than anything else. These are the starting points we use for each type, before every doorway is confirmed on site.
Retail entrances in Zeerust
Shop and centre entrances are judged on two things: they must never stop trading, and they must lock tight at closing. For automatic doors Zeerust 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 Zeerust
Healthcare buildings need hands-free entry for patients in wheelchairs, on crutches and on stretchers, and doors that never trap anyone. For automatic doors Zeerust 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 Zeerust
An office reception sees staff, visitors and couriers all day and needs to stay controlled. Automatic doors Zeerust 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.
Hotel and venue entrances in Zeerust
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 Zeerust 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.
Schools, churches and halls in Zeerust
Schools, churches and halls move large numbers of people in a few minutes and then need the entrance controlled. Automatic doors Zeerust schools and halls use are usually swing doors with push buttons on halls and classrooms, so staff decide when a door opens, and sliding doors at reception linked to the visitor system.
How we deal with conditions in Zeerust
The four things that wear an entrance in Zeerust are shown in the first diagram. This is what we do about each of them on automatic doors Zeerust.
| Condition in Zeerust | What we do |
|---|---|
| Dust | Dust wears tracks, rollers and sensors. We fit brushes and seals, clean the track and lens on every visit and shorten the service interval on dusty sites. |
| Power cuts | Battery backup keeps a door working through load shedding, and every entrance gets a defined power-failure behaviour, open or closed, agreed with the building and its fire strategy. |
Sliding, swing or revolving: choosing automatic doors Zeerust
Most entrances in Zeerust 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 Zeerust 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.

Maintaining automatic doors Zeerust

- 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.

- Record the cycle count and the settings, and report anything that needs attention.

Safety settings on automatic doors Zeerust
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.

Power failures and fire release
Every automatic doors Zeerust 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.
