Automatic Doors Kent – Medical Centre

A busy surgery recently got in touch with ERREKA enquiring about a set of Automatic Doors Kent. Following a discussion, it became apparent that the surgery was looking to implement a new, wider entrance in order to improve disabled access for its patients. What is more, this would provide more space in the waiting room; allowing patients to enjoy a more comfortable experience. Subsequently, the surgery hoped that this change would make the room feel less claustrophobic; with the intention of putting anxious patients at ease.

The Requirements

Due to the number of frail and vulnerable people visiting the surgery; it was vital that the new entrance met (and exceeded) all health and safety requirements.

At ERREKA UK, all of our products meet the European Standard EN 16005. As a result, our automatic doors include activation and threshold scanners. This means that if someone is stood still (in front of the door) when the doors are in an open position, the safety scanner will detect them and stop the doors from closing. What is more, the automatic doors include side screen safety sensors which monitors motion outside the range of the safety scanner. This protects unsuspecting patients who are standing to the side of the doors.

Due to the nature of the service, it is essential that the new entrance is up and running as quickly as possible to minimise disruption to staff and patients. Finally, the entrance must be capable of sustaining heavy traffic during peak times.

The Result

ERREKA UK designed and installed two automatic sliding entrance screens finished in RAL green. These are powered by the ERTAIN opener; the ERTAIN is a reliable opener which is more than capable of meeting the clients requirements.  It features silent opening/closure movements which reduces stress for those with sensitive hearing… as well as a robust construction which will deftly handle traffic at peak times. Due to it’s thoughtful design, the opener is easy to install; enabling our expertly trained engineers to waste no time in getting the entrance up and running.
