MAKING MOVEMENT EASIER:
Automatic Doors In Care Homes
Making everyday movement easier, safer and more independent
For many care-home residents, opening a door isn’t as simple as it sounds. Wheelchairs, walking frames, limited strength or reduced mobility can make a heavy manual door a genuine obstacle.
Automatic internal doors remove that barrier, helping residents move around the care home with greater independence while making life easier for care staff.
Do Your Automatic Doors Need Servicing?
We offer a range of service plans with engineers located all over the North of England. Our experienced team provides reliable service and maintenance to keep your care home entrances safe, secure and operating smoothly.
Support independence and dignity
Residents shouldn’t always have to rely on staff to open a door for them. Automatic doors allow people to move between bedrooms, lounges, dining areas and communal spaces more independently.
It’s a small change that can make a meaningful difference to choice, confidence and dignity.
Improve accessibility
Automatic doors make access easier for people using:
- Wheelchairs
- Walking frames
- Zimmer frames
- Walking sticks
- Other mobility aids
Make life easier for care staff
Care staff are constantly moving around a busy care home, often while supporting residents or carrying equipment. Automatic doors allow them to pass through doorways without stopping.
Less time managing doors means more time focused on residents.
Support safer movement & Hygiene
Heavy doors can be difficult to control for people with limited strength or mobility. Correctly specified automatic doors provide controlled opening and closing and can incorporate safety sensors to help prevent doors closing when an obstruction is detected. Automatic doors can reduce the need to touch door handles, helping support a care home’s wider hygiene and infection-control measures.
“A door may seem like a small thing, but for someone with limited mobility, it can be a significant barrier to independence.”
