Automatic Door Systems

Automatic Door Automatic doors are seen as a convenience by many but more importantly, they serve a role in ensuring a business meets accessibility standards, in line with the guidelines of the Disability Discrimination Act.

Meesons have 20 years experience supplying and installing a range of automatic door types including:

Automatic Doors


Automatic Swing Doors

Automatic swing doors are amongst the most common and reliable of auto door types; often being “semi-automated” as an economical and space saving solution to door automation requirements. A key advantage being the ability to retrofit an automatic door operator to an existing door.

Automatic Sliding Doors

For areas of high throughput traffic, automatic sliding doors provide a highly aesthetic and practical solution. Their flexibility enables them to be installed at a main entry point or act as an internal partition within a building.

Automatic Folding Doors

Automatic folding doors are perfect for making the most of a restricted space. Folding auto doors don’t open outwards towards the user like swing doors so this is a sensible choice for many applications.

Automatic Revolving Doors

When climate control has to be balanced against a high human throughput, automatic revolving doors provide function and design in one sleek product.

Automatic Telescopic Doors

Automatic telescopic doors allow sliding doors to be installed in restricted locations where the column and beam structure or façade entrance is limited.

Automatic doors and the DDA 1995 (Disability Discrimination Act)

DDA legislation requires all public building owners to make “reasonable adjustments” to the physical features of their premises to facilitate disabled access. The timeline limit set down of October 2004 has now passed and many organisations have yet to address the issues.

Meesons’ automatic doors provide a wealth of solutions for making the entry points of a building and internal doors disability access friendly and DDA compliant.

The low energy door operator or “Auto Assist” operator is the most popular and cost effective DDA auto door solution and entails a simple retrofit to an entrance door. This operator can be either door mounted or transom mounted and allows an existing door to be automated and used as an automatic door, when needed, by the use of push pads – otherwise it remains as a manual swing door.
