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.

Automatic Doors FAQs

Can integrated systems work with existing infrastructure?

Yes, integrated access control and phone systems can often be tailored to work with your current security setup and telephony network. This helps reduce installation costs and ensures smoother adoption of enhanced security features without replacing existing systems entirely.

How can integrated systems improve my building’s security?

By combining access control with phone systems, you can authenticate users, monitor entry points, and communicate instantly with staff or visitors. This reduces security gaps, enhances response times, and provides centralised management of both access and communication.

What are integrated access control and phone systems?

Integrated access control and phone systems combine physical security (such as door entry and access control) with communication tools like telephony. This allows seamless management of visitor access, staff communication, and site security through a unified platform.

Can audio intercom systems be integrated with other security systems?

Yes, audio intercom systems can be integrated with CCTV, access control systems, and intruder alarms. This creates a more comprehensive security solution, allowing better monitoring, communication, and control across your property.

Where are audio intercom systems typically used?

Audio intercom systems are commonly used in residential buildings, offices, warehouses, and commercial premises. They are ideal for managing entry points, internal communication, and restricting access to specific areas such as secure rooms or staff-only zones.

What are the benefits of audio intercom systems?

Audio intercom systems provide a cost-effective and reliable way to manage access to your property. They are easy to use, require minimal infrastructure, and allow you to screen visitors before granting entry, helping to improve overall site security.

What is an audio intercom system?

An audio intercom system is a door entry and access control solution that allows two-way voice communication between a visitor and someone inside the building. It enables users to speak with visitors and grant or deny access remotely, improving both security and convenience.

Can video intercom systems be integrated with other security systems?

Video intercom systems can be integrated with access control, CCTV, and other security systems to create a fully connected solution. This provides better monitoring, centralised control, and enhanced overall security for your premises.

What are the benefits of installing a video intercom system?

Video intercom systems improve security by allowing you to visually verify visitors, record activity, and control access to your property. They also offer convenience, enabling remote communication and reducing the need to physically answer the door.

What is a video intercom system and how does it work?

A video intercom system is a security solution that allows you to see and speak to visitors at your entrance before granting access. Using an external camera and an internal screen or mobile device, you can verify visitors in real time and control entry remotely.
