Automatic Sliding Doors
A project-configured entrance system combining glazed sliding leaves, an automatic operator, activation sensing, safety detection and control interfaces for convenient commercial access.
Product Definition
An automatic sliding glass door moves one or more glazed door leaves horizontally along an overhead track. When an approved activation input detects an approaching user, the controller manages the drive system to open the entrance. Presence safety detection and obstacle-response functions coordinate with the movement system around the monitored area.
The final system must be selected around opening dimensions, available side space, door-leaf construction and weight, pedestrian traffic, sensor layout, access-control requirements and the agreed scope of supply.
Consider this product when the entrance needs a clear glazed appearance, frequent hands-free access and a straight sliding movement coordinated with the building opening and control requirements.
Project Benefits
Glazed door leaves maintain visibility between the exterior and interior and support a bright, open entrance design. Glass, frame and hardware construction must still be reviewed against door size, weight, architectural intent and local project requirements.
Automatic activation makes entry more practical for customers, visitors and staff carrying luggage, shopping bags, documents or small wheeled items. Sensor zones and hold-open timing should be set around the actual approach path and user flow.
Activation sensing, presence safety detection, controller settings and obstacle response work as one operating system. Their locations and functions should be confirmed for the entrance geometry, traffic pattern and selected door package.
SEPPES prioritizes complete automatic door packages. Standalone operators and components follow the replacement and large-volume supply conditions below. The quotation states which door body, glass, frame, operator, sensors, controls, locking interfaces and installation components are included.
Configuration Guide
Confirm the complete automatic sliding glass door package and any site work by others. For replacement parts, identify the earlier order and configuration. The written quotation identifies every inclusion, interface and item by others.
Provide the proposed door-leaf dimensions, glass construction, frame or hardware requirement and estimated moving weight. These inputs guide operator, track and hanger selection.
Confirm how users approach the entrance, where activation is required and which areas need presence monitoring. Review sensor position together with door movement, pedestrian flow, fixed panels and surrounding activity.
Identify any card reader, keypad, face-recognition terminal, reception release, program selector, electric lock or building-system command that must interact with the door. Confirm interface type and operating logic rather than assuming compatibility from a device name.
Confirm the visible cover, frame, hardware and finish together with structural support, power location, cable routing and installation responsibility.
Coordinated System
The overhead operator supports the movement system and houses the drive and control components. Its capacity must match the door construction, moving weight, opening arrangement and operating demand.
The motor and belt drive convert controller commands into horizontal door-leaf movement. Selection and adjustment must match the verified operator and door load.
The controller manages opening, closing, hold-open timing, operating modes and connected inputs. Available functions depend on the selected controller.
The track guides the suspended leaves. Its length, support and alignment coordinate with the opening width and available side space.
Hangers connect the door leaves to the moving system and transfer their load to the track assembly.
The sensing package detects the approved approach area and monitors the defined safety zone. A project may use one combined device or separate activation and presence-safety devices.
A project-defined interface can receive commands from approved access-control or building systems. Signal type, logic, locking behavior and compatibility require confirmation.
Glazed door leaves and frame construction define the visible entrance and total moving load. Dimensions, glass, hardware and finish require project review.

Frequently Asked Questions
Practical answers for early selection, quotation preparation and system coordination.
Selection starts with project location, opening size, side space, leaf construction and weight, quantity, traffic, activation, safety, access control and supply scope. Drawings or site photographs help reduce assumptions.
They are confirmed from the architectural opening, intended passage, movement, available travel, glass and frame construction, hardware and verified moving weight.
The package depends on entrance geometry, approach direction, pedestrian flow, door movement and monitored area. It may use a combined device or separate activation and presence-safety devices.
A selected controller may receive commands from card readers, keypads, face-recognition terminals, reception controls or building systems. Signal type, logic, locking and compatibility must be confirmed.
Our main focus is complete door supply. Operator systems, components and accessories are generally supplied to existing customers as replacement, spare or repair parts. Large-volume standalone requirements, such as hundreds or thousands of sets, can be discussed separately. The quotation identifies included items and interfaces.
Provide proposed leaf dimensions, glass construction and thickness, frame or hardware details, visible finish and estimated moving weight.
Price depends on opening size, leaf construction and weight, operator, sensors, controller functions, access and locking interfaces, finishes, supply scope, quantity, packaging and logistics.
The required set depends on supply scope and project stage. Opening dimensions, layout, fixed panels, structural support, operator position, power and control interfaces should be confirmed before release.
