Automatic Sliding Glass Doors
Automatic Sliding Glass Doors provide a clean, modern and convenient entrance for buildings with regular pedestrian traffic. The glass leaves open automatically when a person approaches and close after passage, giving visitors easy hands-free access while helping maintain a controlled indoor environment.
AZTÖR Automation supplies and installs complete sliding door systems across the UAE and wider GCC, including the operator, aluminium header, glass leaves, activation sensors, presence safety sensors, locking and control accessories. Systems can be designed as single-sliding or bi-parting entrances with framed, slim-framed or frameless-style glass configurations depending on the opening, architecture and operating requirement.
For UAE buildings, selecting the operator only by door width is not enough. Leaf weight, daily traffic, wind exposure, external temperature, air-conditioned indoor conditions, available side space, glass specification, structural fixing and safety requirements all influence the final design. AZTÖR provides a free site inspection to check these conditions before recommending the appropriate system.
Depending on the project requirement and availability, AZTÖR can work with established automatic entrance brands used in the UAE and GCC such as dormakaba, GEZE, ASSA ABLOY, TORMAX and other suitable manufacturers. We also repair, maintain and retrofit existing automatic sliding doors, including installations originally supplied by other contractors.
Automatic sliding doors can be integrated with access control, card readers, biometric readers, push buttons, remote controls, building management systems and other authorised building interfaces where required. After installation, the system is adjusted, safety functions are tested and operating parameters are configured for the actual traffic pattern of the entrance.
Preventive maintenance is particularly important for busy entrances in malls, hotels, hospitals, offices and residential towers. AZTÖR provides scheduled maintenance, fault diagnosis, sensor replacement, operator and control-board repair, component replacement and emergency breakdown support to help keep automatic entrances safe and reliable throughout their service life.
