Automatic Doors in Leicester

Automatic Doors in Leicester sounds simple until you start asking for quotes. Some firms will sub the work out, some will fit residential-grade product on a commercial frontage, and a few will get it right. We've already filtered for the last group.

Common questions

What's BS EN 16005?

It's the UK/European safety standard for powered pedestrian doors. All compliant automatic doors must have sensors detecting people in the door path, emergency manual release, and regular safety inspection.

How often do they need servicing?

BS EN 16005 requires servicing at intervals based on use — typically every 6 months for high-traffic retail, annually for low-use offices. Servicing is also required for insurance and warranty validity.
