Have you noticed how many more doors now automatically open as you approach them? They used to be confined to airports and stations, areas where you could be lugging heavy baggage and struggling to open the door. Then many commercial properties started to install them, and now automatic doors in shops and offices are common place.
In residential blocks, automatic doors are now frequently installed, often when an upgraded security requirement means that the main entrance door is quite heavy and laden with sensors. These are pretty tricky to open at the best of times. Add to that the fragility of some more elderly residents, as well as young parents managing pushchairs, and quite quickly an automatic door becomes essential.
Automatic doors do need careful maintaining and this is where Anchor Door Systems comes in. Our engineers are specially trained and qualified to recognised BSEN 16005 European standards and can quickly diagnose and sort out any issues. Their qualifications mean you can rest assured that all repair and maintenance matters are carried out to the highest standard, fulfilling all Health and Safety requirements. In addition to this peace of mind, our programmed maintenance service means all should run smoothly, while our 24-hour emergency service is invaluable when doors are accidentally damaged. With all this under one roof, Anchor Door Systems ensures your entrance is always a welcome place to be.
