Why Choose An Automatic Door Solution?
There are several benefits to installing automatic doors. This is why so many businesses worldwide use these doors in both industrial and commercial workspaces.
- Facilitate easy access to a building (especially for those with disabilities).
- Reduce energy consumption by closing automatically and ensuring no unnecessary heat loss.
- Improved hygiene as touch is no longer needed, and the automatic closing prevents dust and debris from entering regularly. This is especially useful in hospitals and food factories.
- Aesthetically pleasing.

Automatic Door Services FAQs
Are Automatic Doors Secure?
Despite misconceptions, automatic doors are very secure and come with an extensive range of access controls and settings. We will onboard you on how to configure your security needs when we install your doors.
Do You Offer A Warranty?
All of our aluminium commercial doors come with a full warranty and our customers can feel safe in the knowledge that if a problem occurs, we will be on hand to fix it with our commercial door maintenance and repair service.
Can You Automate Existing Manual Doors?
Manually operated door systems can be retrofitted with automatic doors in most situations. If you wish, we will be happy to provide you with a quotation on-site where we can suggest the best solution.
Do Automatic Doors Use A Lot Of Energy?
Automatic doors are designed to be energy efficient. They help retain heat by minimising the unnecessary heat loss caused by open doors, and reduce HVAC strain. The motors typically use low voltage during short active cycles, meaning that they don’t use a lot of energy despite being powered.
How Long Do Automatic Doors Stay Open?
Typically, an automatic door stays open for around 5 seconds to allow safe passage for all users. However, sensors are fitted so that the door will not close if someone is still in the middle of passing over the threshold. You may also be able to adjust the amount of time your automatic door stays open, but you may need a technician to do this for you.
How Much Do Automatic Doors Cost?
At Sykes, we understand that receiving value for money is of paramount importance for business owners, however, it is impossible to provide an accurate quote without your specific requirements. With so many choices, opening options, customisable features and hardware add-ons, automatic doors have been difficult to price accurately, and that is why we provide a free onsite inspection for all our clients where we will tailor the perfect commercial door solution for you and provide a full quotation.
How Long Do Automatic Commercial Doors Take To Fit?
Fitting will take less than one day, and your installation will be scheduled within two weeks after you place your order. Because we manage all of the manufacturing processes in-house, we can provide faster turnaround times than we would if we outsourced any part of the process. There’s no better time to start than today, and we look forward to hearing from you.
Do Automatic Doors Need Servicing?
Yes, automatic doors will need servicing. Depending on the usage, they will need servicing every 3 to 12 months to ensure safety, reliable operation, and compliance with regulations. Routine maintenance and servicing will extend the lifespan of your automatic doors by checking sensors, tracks, and motors, as well as preventing costly breakdowns.
Do Automatic Doors Need Electricity To Work?
Yes. An automatic door will not open if there is no power to it. However, during times without power, the door will still be usable, but it will need to be opened and closed manually.
