Benefits of automatic sliding doors

continuous flow of people icon
Continuous flow of people.
Ideal for high-traffic areas such as hospitals, shops, hotels or stations, as they facilitate an agile, continuous and uninterrupted flow of people.
Space optimisation icon
Space optimisation.

As they slide sideways, they do not encroach on passageways or interior spaces, which optimises the layout and facilitates architectural planning.

Eficiencia energetica icono
Energy efficiency.

Its speed and automatic opening and closing reduce loss of conditioned air, helping to maintain a stable indoor temperature and to optimise energy consumption.

Accesibilidad universal icono
Accessibility universal.
They facilitate access for people with reduced mobility, as well as for trolleys, stretchers or loads, complying with accessibility standards and promoting inclusive design.
High adaptability icon
High adaptability.
They adapt to multiple configurations and finishes, integrating easily into different architectural styles and functional requirements.

Frequently asked questions about automatic sliding doors

Automatic sliding doors open laterally (centrally or to the sides) by means of a motorised system activated by motion or presence sensors. This mechanism provides smooth, safe and contactless access, ideal for high-traffic areas. They are one of the most widely used solutions due to their convenience, reliability and versatility, and Manusa offers models adapted to multiple sectors and needs.

There are different configurations depending on the space and use, such as standard sliding, telescopic, curved or hermetic doors, each designed to adapt to specific requirements for opening, design or insulation.

They are the best option in areas with a constant flow of people, such as hospitals, shopping centres, airports or corporate buildings, where fast, comfortable and continuous access is required.

Choosing the appropriate automatic sliding door depends on the intended use, pedestrian flow and the building's requirements. In general:

  • Standard: for medium to high traffic (shops, offices, hotels or public buildings). 
  • Telescopic: for reduced spaces (hospitals or existing buildings).
  • Curved or semi-circular: when design is a priority (hotels or corporate headquarters).
  • Hermetic: for environments requiring maximum isolation (operating theatres or laboratories).

Manusa's solutions allow systems to be customised and adapted to each project while complying with current regulations.

Yes. They can be adapted in dimensions, opening type, finishes, sensors and control systems, allowing integration into different architectural environments and functional requirements.

They require periodic preventive maintenance to ensure correct operation, prevent breakdowns and extend their service life, especially in high-use environments.
