An automatic swing door operator is a motorised unit mounted above a hinged door. It opens the door when a sensor, push button, access card or remote gives a signal, holds it open for a set time, and then closes it gently. It can be fitted to new doors or retrofitted to many existing glass, wooden, aluminium and steel doors. See Rudhar's automatic swing doors.
Low-energy operators open slowly with limited force. They are used for offices, hospital rooms, washrooms and accessible entrances, and often work with a push button. They are usually cheaper and need fewer safety sensors.
Full-energy operators open faster with more force for busy entrances. Because the door moves faster, they need motion and presence sensors to protect people in the swing path. In Europe, the safety of power-operated pedestrian doors is covered by EN 16005, and many good operators are designed to meet it.
If space allows, an automatic sliding door can handle higher traffic at main entrances. Learn about sensors in our automatic door sensor guide.
Swing operators can be fitted to fire doors only if the operator and the door system are suitable for that use. On a fire alarm, the door must close (or open for escape) as required by the building's fire plan, and people must always be able to open escape doors manually. Check with your fire consultant before automating a fire-rated or escape door.
