The DORMA automatic sliding door sensor sits above your door and does two jobs at once: it opens the door when someone walks towards it, and it keeps the door from closing while anyone is standing in the doorway. One sensor replaces a separate motion detector and safety beam — ideal for shops, offices, clinics, malls and building lobbies in Dubai.
What it does
-
Opens the door automatically — a microwave motion detector picks up people approaching, so the door opens smoothly without anyone touching it.
-
Protects people in the doorway — two rows of infrared beams watch the door opening and stop the door closing on a person, pram, wheelchair or trolley.
-
Meets the European safety standard — monitored to EN 16005 performance level C, the standard building consultants and facility managers look for on automatic pedestrian doors.
-
Covers a wide entrance — detection area up to 2.2 m wide × 0.5 m deep when mounted at 2.2 m height.
-
Discreet look — slim black housing that blends in above the door.
Best for
- Replacing an old or faulty sensor on a DORMA ES 200 / ES 250 sliding door
- Upgrading an entrance that only has a motion sensor and no safety beam
- Busy entrances where safety and reliable opening matter — retail, hospitals, hotels, offices
