Adapt Your Business With A Drive Thru or Pass Thru Window System

August 6, 2020 | Commercial Doors

Installing Drive-Thru Solutions for Efficiency

In these unprecedented times, businesses are working to adapt to meet CDC and local guidelines for operation during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Every business, from restaurants and retail stores to public office buildings and schools, are having to modify their processes in order to comply with local regulations and CDC guidelines. 

According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), social distancing, also referred to as “physical distancing,” means maintaining a space between yourself and people outside of your business. The recommendation is to follow these guidelines:

  • Stay at least 6 feet or 2 meters from other people
  • Do not gather in groups
  • Stay out of crowded places and avoid mass gatherings

One simple way to modify a building to make it safer for operation during the COVID-19 pandemic is by installing a pass thru or “drive thru” sliding window system. These innovative additions allow for easy transacting from a safe distance and can blend seamlessly with any building’s exterior. A variety of businesses and facilities could benefit from the safety and convenience a drive thru window provides, including: 

  • Retail stores
  • Restaurants 
  • Government buildings 
  • Schools 

Vortex recently helped a school adapt to the ever-changing times by transforming the front of this high school by installing a pass thru window. This new window will help the faculty and staff interact safely with students throughout the year.

If you think your business or building could benefit from the convenience of a pass thru window, contact us. Our knowledgeable team can help you navigate through these unprecedented times. Request your free estimate here or contact us at 800-698-6783.

**Update ** Rob the Owner / Manager Went over and beyond to make things right with us. It's good to know that some companies still care about their clients and want to retain that business. Because of Rob, I will continue to do business with Vortex Doors going forward. We already have a new project on the horizon as discussed with them. I am a hard customer to recover once I am unhappy, and you were able to retain my business. Thanks Rob for all that you do. ***** Two stars for the techs who did the work and the staff on the phone. Minus three stars for the following. $600 to replace a door lock? They charge $158 to come out, plus bill you for $80 per half hour. The tech took two hours to do the work and cost us $600 to replace a LOCK! I was completely unaware of these charges when I mentioned we are a new client. I would have gone somewhere else. We will not use this company ever again! This was the first time and will be my last time!
