      What is an automatic swing door?
      An automatic swing door opens and closes using a motorized operator, triggered by sensors, push plates, or access control systems. It’s commonly used in commercial, residential, and public buildings to improve accessibility and hands-free entry.
      Do automatic doors need to comply with building code in BC?
      Yes. In British Columbia, automatic swing doors must comply with the BC Building Code to meet accessibility and safety standards—especially in new construction or renovations of public or multi-unit buildings.
      How much does it cost to install an automatic swing door in BC?
      Pricing typically ranges from $2,800 to $6,000 depending on door size, operator type (low energy vs. full power), and accessories like push buttons, sensors, or card readers. We offer free on-site estimates across the Lower Mainland.
      Can you retrofit an existing door with an automatic operator?
      Yes! Most swing doors can be upgraded with an automatic operator, especially if the frame and hinge are in good condition. Retrofitting is common for strata buildings, washrooms, and office entryways.
      What kind of activation options are available?
      Common activators include:

      Touchless wave sensors
      Accessible push plates
      Key fob/card access
      Mobile phone unlock

      Do automatic swing doors require regular maintenance?
      Yes. Regular maintenance ensures smooth operation, reduces wear, and helps you stay compliant with accessibility and safety regulations. We recommend semi-annual servicing for commercial doors.
      Do you install in strata and apartment buildings?
      Yes — we specialize in strata and multi-unit retrofits, including lobby entrances, garbage room access, and barrier-free washrooms.

      What sensors are used in automatic doors

      Infrared motion sensors are used in automatic doors to detect movement. 

      What is the difference between a motion sensor and a motion detector?

      A motion sensor typically refers to the individual component that detects movement, whereas a motion detector refers to the complete system, which may include the sensor itself along with alarms, control panels, and other integrated devices.

      How do automatic doors detect people?

      At our Vancouver based automatic door company, we install doors equipped with advanced sensor systems that detect the presence of people or objects nearby. These sensors use cutting-edge technologies such as infrared, microwave, and motion detection to ensure smooth, safe, and efficient door operation in any environment.

      How to fix an automatic door sensor?

      Step 1: Identify the Sensor Type
      Determine whether the sensor is infrared, microwave, or a combination type. Check the brand and model for compatibility.

      Step 2: Purchase a Compatible Replacement
      Order the correct sensor from a trusted supplier or your automatic door service provider in Vancouver, BC.

      Step 3: Disconnect Power to the Door
      For safety, switch off the power supply to the automatic door system before beginning any work.

      Step 4: Remove the Existing Sensor
      Carefully unscrew or unclip the damaged sensor and disconnect any wiring or mounting components.

      Step 5: Install the New Sensor
      Mount the new sensor in the same location and reconnect all wiring as per manufacturer instructions.

      Step 6: Restore Power and Test
      Turn the power back on and test the door to ensure the new sensor is working properly and safely.

      Can automatic doors be opened manually?

      Automatic doors are widely used in commercial buildings for their convenience, accessibility, and energy-saving benefits. In the event of a power outage or system failure, most automatic doors are designed to be opened manually, ensuring continued access and safety.

      How much does it cost to automate a door?

      Typically the most cost-effective option, swing door openers range in price from $3,000 to $4,500, making them ideal for budget-conscious installations.

      How long do automatic doors last?

      With regular maintenance and proper care, a well-installed automatic door can last up to 20 years—making it a smart, long-term investment for your business. To maximize their lifespan and performance, it’s essential to keep your automatic doors properly serviced and maintained.

      Do automatic doors work without power?

      The automated door remains locked when there is no power—requiring electricity to both lock and unlock. In the event of a power failure, the door will stay securely locked. However, an emergency pull cord allows manual release. Once the cord is pulled, the door can be opened, but it will remain unlocked until power is restored.
