More and more businesses, large and small, are moving in the direction of automatic entrances.
Automatic door operators have become a requirement for commercial openings in Ontario, which includes exterior openings, interior openings and washrooms. This has been mandated in recent amendments within The Ontario Building Code (OBC).
Not only does this provide accessibility for a much greater clientele, but, in these times of greater health and safety awareness, automatic entrances create peace of mind to both customers and employees.
