Automatic Doors

Across a wide range of buildings, automatic doors provide a practical way to manage access and movement. Croma Fire & Security delivers automatic doors that support controlled entry while maintaining smooth and consistent operation. These systems are suited to commercial, healthcare, retail, and public environments where accessibility and reliability are important.

Automatic Door Installation

Before any installation takes place, a full site assessment is completed to review access points, building layout, and user requirements. This allows our engineers to determine the most effective placement and configuration for each automatic door. All automated doors are installed in line with current safety regulations, ensuring they operate safely within the intended environment.

Features

Automated Doors Operation

Through the use of sensors and control systems, automated doors open and close without the need for manual input. Activation methods can include motion sensors, push plates, or integration with access control systems depending on the application.

This controlled operation allows doors to respond efficiently to user movement while maintaining access management.

Door Types and Configurations

Depending on the structure of the building, automatic doors can be supplied in sliding, swing, or bi-fold formats. Each option is selected based on available space, traffic flow, and the intended use of the entrance.

This approach ensures that every automatic door is suited to both the physical environment and operational demands.

Access Control Integration

When connected to access control systems, automatic doors can restrict entry to authorised individuals. This supports secure movement within the building while maintaining ease of access where required.

Integration also allows door activity to be monitored as part of a wider security system.

Safety Features

Built in safety mechanisms play an important role in automated door systems. Sensors detect movement or obstructions, preventing the door from closing when the path is not clear.

These features help ensure that doors can be used safely in busy environments with regular foot traffic.

System Configuration

To match the way a building operates, automatic doors can be configured with adjustable settings. Opening speed, response times, and hold open durations can all be tailored to suit daily use.

This flexibility allows the system to perform consistently under varying conditions.

Design and Integration

As part of a wider building infrastructure, automated doors can be linked with fire safety and security systems. This enables coordinated responses during events such as alarms or restricted access periods.

The design process ensures compatibility with existing systems already in place.

Compliance and Standards

In line with relevant British Standards, all automatic doors installed by Croma Fire & Security are tested and commissioned to meet safety requirements. Each system is provided with the necessary documentation to support compliance.

This ensures that doors operate within current regulatory guidelines.

Maintenance

Ongoing maintenance helps preserve the performance of automatic doors over time. Servicing includes checks on mechanical components, safety systems, and operational settings.

Regular inspections reduce the likelihood of faults and support reliable operation.

What our customers say

The requirements of Compass School can be complex due to supporting pupils with SEMH (Social, emotional and mental health) issues. Whether installing, servicing, or maintaining, the knowledge of the Croma engineers is second to none, whereby they always find a satisfactory solution to the issue at hand that will withstand the environment we work within.

Roger Sim – Site Manager, Compass School

The school has been delighted with the technology, which has enabled us to improve not only administrative functions but also the pastoral care of our pupils

Giles Brand — Bursar, St Mary’s School Ascot

I see tangible payroll savings in the order of 2-3%. Our sites are usually about 35 workers; we are saving £400-£500 a week and are in much better control

Luke Sanders – Project Manager, LTS Refurbishment

We have been delighted with the Fastvein system and the care given to us by Croma. From design meetings to commission, the staff were knowledgeable, helpful and courteous. The system has done all we asked of it and with over 500 entries per day. We are now looking to extend the system to more doors […]

Automatic Doors FAQs

Do automatic doors meet accessibility requirements?

Yes. We install doors that comply with BS 7036 and support the requirements of the Equality Act, including safety sensors to protect users.

Where are automatic doors most suitable?

They suit entrances with high footfall such as shops, offices, hospitals, and care homes. They also improve accessibility for wheelchair users, people with pushchairs, and anyone carrying goods.
