This is the most popular type of automatic door; the doors slide behind glazes or walls to give a clear opening. Single or double doors up to 3 metre daylight width are available. Automatic sliding doors are fitted with a sidelight safety sensor, this allows the door to open slowly on detection of an obstruction. The door opens slowly in detection mode to feel for the obstruction, if none is detected the door resets to normal operation.
