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.

Bryan and Reyes were quick to fix our door, and even adjusted the door to fix a different problem that was previously left unfixed.

Tony was great today. Wonderful install.
Christian B.
We have 10 offices worldwide and Vortex Doors is our number 1 door vendor. We had a need for a new set of doors for our reception lobby in Seattle and Vortex came through for us. When one of the glass panel in the doors was shattered in the middle of the night, Vortex was there immediately to install a temporary board braced with 2x4s, and had a replacement pane installed the following week. Our company prides itself on our professionalism and we find that Vortex is on par with ours!

I appreciated Joey and Jonathan's quick response and arrival at our building. They were professional and friendly. Also, Lloyd came by for a separate issue the other day and showed the same amount of professionalism. I appreciate working with companies like this!
