Case Study: Automatic Swing Door Installation for a Local School

Client Challenge: Improving Accessibility and Traffic Flow

A local school needed to upgrade one of their main entrances to improve accessibility and manage daily traffic efficiently, ensuring compliance with modern building standards such as Approved Document M for accessible access.

The facility required a solution that allowed students, staff, and visitors to move safely and smoothly through the entrance while maintaining a professional and welcoming appearance. The existing doors were not suitable for high-volume use and needed a reliable, low-maintenance replacement.

Our Solution: Reliable Automatic Swing Doors for Schools

We designed and installed a pair of automatic swing entrance doors tailored to the school’s needs. The project included:

  • Automatic swing doors with sensors on both the outside and inside of the building for seamless hands-free entry and exit.
  • Durable framework designed for high-traffic daily use.
  • Improved accessibility compliance for students and visitors with mobility challenges.
  • A professional entrance solution that blends seamlessly with the school’s existing architecture.
