Automatic Folding Door

As a reliable manufacturer, OWNIC offers not only a wide range of high-end medical door solutions but also a series of commercial doors—including the Automatic Folding Door. Driven by a motor, this system features multiple panels that fold and slide open; unlike sliding doors, it does not require extensive lateral wall space for retraction, nor does it demand the large front-and-back clearance typical of swing doors, making it ideally suited for installation in compact spaces.

Application:

large entrance openings, maximizing the usable space of building access areas.

Product Features:

1.The door operator system utilizes a microcomputer chip for intelligent control of door panel movement, enabling smooth opening and closing. It is equipped with a high-efficiency brushless DC motor, offering long service life, low noise, and strong power output. The operation is responsive, safe, and reliable.

2.The door panel features an aluminum alloy frame with large flat glass inserts, providing high transparency.

3.Multiple activation methods are available: infrared/microwave sensors, access control systems, etc.

4.Suitable for corridors, passageways, and other spaces with limited access, it facilitates smooth pedestrian flow and maximizes space utilization.

Technical Data:

Under what circumstances should you choose an Automatic Folding Door?

If your project requires installing a door at the end of a corridor—where opening the door is difficult due to a lack of lateral clearance for sliding—an Automatic Folding Door offers an effortless solution for automating access in such confined spaces.

Alternatively, if you are undertaking a renovation project where the existing doorway is too narrow or subject to significant structural constraints, installing a sliding door might result in an unacceptably small clear opening width. In such cases, switching to a folding door allows you to maximize the available passage width.

Manual swing doors can pose a collision hazard; by replacing them with an Automatic Folding Door, you eliminate the risk of carts or equipment striking the door panels, while also eliminating the loud slamming noises often associated with closing manual doors.

Configuration Selection Guide

1. Number of Door Panels and Opening Width

Doorway width ≤ 2.5 meters → 2 panels are sufficient for standard passage requirements

Doorway width 2.5–4 meters → 3–4 folding panels to enhance opening efficiency

Doorway width > 4 meters → 4–6 panels to facilitate large openings and accommodate high pedestrian traffic

2. Motor and Drive Mechanism

Standard Single Motor → Suitable for small doorways and low-traffic areas

Dual Motors or High-Performance Motors → Suitable for wide doorways, high-traffic areas, and high-frequency usage environments

3. Safety and Smart Function Configuration

Anti-Pinch Sensors → Automatically stop operation when people or objects approach

Emergency Manual Opening Function → Allows for manual opening during power outages or emergency evacuations

Access Control Integration → Integrates with card-swipe, fingerprint, or facial recognition systems

Fire Alarm Integration → Automatically opens in emergency situations to comply with fire safety regulations

4. Track System and Installation Environment Considerations

Top Track Load Capacity → Must be selected based on the total weight of the door panels

Bottom Guide Rails or Guide Wheels → Ensure smooth and stable sliding of the door body

Environmental Factors → Wind and rain protection for outdoor installations; lightweight tracks available for indoor use

5. Additional Customization Options

Wind-Resistant or Sealing Design → Seals door gaps to reduce energy consumption

Tempered Glass Treatment → Enhances safety and durability

Soundproofing Treatment → Suitable for hospitals, office buildings, and conference rooms
