Automatic doors for shops and offices: discover the best options

Choosing the most suitable automatic doors for each project is a strategic decision that involves analysing factors such as the sector, the needs of each space, the flow of people, safety requirements, and current regulations. For this reason, each environment requires a specific solution that ensures functionality, efficiency and an optimal user experience.

In this context, at Manusa, we develop solutions tailored to different environments and uses. Below, we outline some of the most recommended options depending on the specific requirements of each space.

Standard automatic sliding door

The standard automatic sliding door is one of the most widely used solutions in settings where smooth operation, convenience and reliability are required, such as hospitals, shops and offices. Among its main advantages is the fastest opening speed on the market, which facilitates a continuous flow of people and improves energy efficiency by reducing heat loss. It also incorporates safety features such as detection sensors and automatic reopening, ensuring safe use at all times.

Finally, its high level of customisation available in finishes and materials allows its integration in any architectural setting.

Automatic telescopic sliding door

Telescopic sliding doors are an ideal solution for entrances with limited space, for dividing corridors, or for widening and optimising the opening in narrow areas where a wider than the standard clear passage is required. This type of door is most commonly used in shops, hotels and offices.

This model offers two opening options: central-opening (with and without fixed panels and with two and four leaves) and side-opening (with and without fixed panels and with one or two leaves).

Emergency exit or panic break-out system doors

In environments where safety is a priority, such as hospitals, public buildings (airports, stations, large retail buildings) or offices, Manusa’s automatic panic doors are essential. This type of door combines standard sliding operation with the option of manual break-out opening in the event of an emergency. This allows the doorway to be fully opened to facilitate a quick and safe evacuation, in compliance with current regulations. They are designed to withstand intensive use without compromising on aesthetics, making them an ideal solution for high-traffic areas.

Automatic revolving door

The automatic revolving door is particularly well-suited to buildings with a high flow of people, such as airports, hotels or large corporate complexes. Its main advantage is its ability to maintain indoor climate control, as it prevents draughts and improves thermal and acoustic insulation.

It also incorporates advanced safety systems, including anti-panic functions, and integrates seamlessly into architectural projects where aesthetics also play a key role.

A strategic choice

Choosing the right automatic door is not just a technical matter, but a strategic decision, as access points have a direct impact on security, accessibility, energy efficiency and the user experience. With this in mind, at Manusa we offer models specifically designed for particular sectors, such as healthcare and transport, amongst others. 

At Manusa, we adopt a tailored approach for each project, considering the actual needs of the space and the sector. If you are looking for automatic doors that meet your project’s requirements, please contact us, and we will assist you in finding the best solution.
