Barrier Free Plus, Inc. installs ADA compliant doorways with automatic door openers. These low-energy devices can be activated in a variety of ways including handheld, post-mounted, and wall-mounted. They can also be remote-controlled, mounted to a wheelchair, set up a wall push pad, or have them operated by an app on a mobile device. Automated doors provide access to individuals that require the assistance of walkers, crutches, and wheelchairs. They are also convenient for people carrying packages or pushing strollers.
An automatic door opener is an electronic and/or pneumatic device that can be installed on the existing doors of a home or office. They are used to automatically operate doors by people with disabilities, the elderly, and more. These systems could be used for swing doors (inswing and outswing) as well as sliding doors. These devices also allow for doors to continue to be secured and opened/closed manually as well.
There are a variety of options when it comes to automatic door openers. We install sensors, touch, remote control, and combination style. The sensor type utilizes motion-detecting sensors to open or close doors and is often the most common type used in commercial settings and us infrared-motion sensors. Touch automatic door openers use a wall-mounted switch or panel to automatically open a door and are often used in public places. Remote control type openers quite obviously use a remote control to open or close doors. Sometimes, combination-type systems are utilized, which combine a variety of the above.
