How
Our Installations
Considering the recent challenges facing most businesses and buildings, we have put extra effort into making sure you do not have to make contact with a surface unless necessary.
In order to achieve this, we have added touch-less wave sensors and mobile phone applications for activating your door. As a result, this can greatly assist people with mobility issues and entrances where people might have their hands full (e.g., garbage rooms or loading area doors.
