Use The Back Door Please !

In times gone by it was quite normal to hear the saying `use the back door please` especially in situations where deliveries were being made. These days this would be a rare occurrence and certainly not happen in any buildings that have an automatic door installed.

The beauty of an automatic door is that as it opens up when an individual approaches so there is no need to stop, put down belongings or shopping or indeed make deliveries. This of course is not the only advantage of an automatic door for your business, there are many benefits to you as a business owner, and ultimately for your customers.

SOLVING ACCESS ISSUES

By installing an automatic door at your property you will instantly solve all access issues. It will not just be the elderly and disabled population groups that will benefit from not having to manually push a door open but also parents pushing young children, and business people trying to manage their lap tops, files and cases into work. Yet another category of people who will enjoy the rewards of an automatic door are everyday shoppers either purchasing groceries from the local store or indeed supermarkets. Of course these days due to the increase in mobility scooters there are many more individuals who are able to go out and about so it makes obvious sense to install an automatic door to accommodate them. Once the automatic door is in place you will also be complying with the DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) which demands that straight forward and comfortable access is provided for everyone.

STOP AND LOOK

It is important that the outside of your premises shows a true representation of your business and it is therefore vital that your property is well looked after. An automatic door will transform your business premises creating a modern and stylish visual. As potential customers pass by, the external appearance of your property will create their first and lasting impression. A property that appears tired and drab will not entice customers inside. Apart from looking great, an automatic door delivers fantastic customer service.

EVERYONE IN!

The beauty of an automatic door is that it can help assist with traffic flow in and out of the building. Individuals can pass through quickly and safely even at key times of the day. In premises including supermarkets, airports and hotels a sliding automatic door is generally preferred as they manage heavy daily pedestrian traffic on a daily basis. In smaller premises or locations where the footfall is not as intense, a perfect entrance solution would be an automatic swing door. Many smaller business premises including doctor’s surgeries, post offices and high street shops are already enjoying the many rewards that an automatic door can bring.

MANAGING OVERHEADS

The operational costs of any business are always very high and business owners are always looking for ways to reduce them. An automatic door will assist in reducing overheads in several ways. No more expensive heat will be allowed to escape outside into the street as an automatic door cannot be left or indeed propped open. With the old style manual doors this is often the case, employees and customers alike will forget to close them on many occasions which will cause heating bills to soar as you endeavour to keep a constant and welcoming heat inside the premises. Of course electricity costs will be decreased too as air conditioning units don’t have to work so hard to achieve a pleasant environment.

FRUSTRATIONS!

One of the many frustrations that people have in a working environment is doors being left open or even worse banging! Employees are distracted from their work and may become irritated. Noise and dust pollution can also be a nuisance, the great thing about an automatic door is that theses irritants are removed as the doors are kept closed. An automatic door is not only easy to clean but will also promote your business as greener as the carbon footprint of your business is reduced.
