Many public buildings have automatic doors at their entrances and exits. There are many different types of automatic doors, some of which are automatic sliding doors, automatic swinging doors, and revolving doors. Automatic doors are convenient to the user because they allow you to pass through an opening without having to pull or push the door open. Automatic doors can also be very helpful for disabled persons who are maneuvering in wheelchairs, walkers, or with canes. However, accidents do occur while people are passing through automatic doors. These accidents can occur due to door malfunction, maintenance issues, inappropriate product for the application, and sometimes because of improper usage.
