We were called out to a warehouse in Western Sydney a while back where the automatic door had failed for the third time in six months — and it turned out the door itself was the problem, not the installer. It had been fitted with a standard retail-grade operator, the kind you’d see on a shopfront, in a site that had forklifts running past it all day and dust getting into the sensors. It wasn’t built for that job. That’s the thing about automatic doors that a lot of people don’t realise until it costs them: the “right” automatic door depends entirely on what industry it’s serving. A hospital corridor, a supermarket entrance, and a warehouse loading bay all need an automatic door — but not the same one.
