Switching Your Store from Standard Doors to Automatic Sliding

July 24, 2014 | Security & Safety

automatic door clearOne of the first things that a consumer notices when they visit a business is the front door. This simple area of your business is where the first impression of your company is made. Doors that are dirty, have clutter around them, look shabby, or even look outdated will give a potential client a less-than-optimal opinion of your company.

One of the best ways to impress a potential client, however, is to have automatic sliding doors in your entrance way. Not only do these types of doors give your business a modern and aesthetically pleasing appearance, they impress customers. Studies have been conducted on consumer habits and have found that people relate automatic sliding doors with the following attributes:

  • Company wants customers to enjoy convenience. Respondents stated that doors that open automatically for them made them feel as if the business cared about their convenience and happiness.
  •  Company is successful. The study showed that people believe anyone can have a standard door, but only successful companies can afford the luxury of an automatic sliding door.
  •  Willing To Buy More. People have stated that they are willing to purchase more n a retail outlet if it is easy to get out the door with the bags. This is one of the main reasons that all grocery stores have automatic sliding doors.

Additional benefits to having this type of front door include compliance with local, state and federal laws regarding impaired access. These doors provide enough room and ease for anyone with a disability.

As a final benefit, adding automatic doors to your building will increase building and resale value. If at any time in the future you wish to sell, these doors will be considered an amenity that many potential buyers will desire.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Excellent
Eric S.
Today Tray and Johnathan with Vortex, showed up to repair our broken entrance gates. They were on time and very professional. After checking the damage, they took the time to clearly explain what needed to be done and how they would do it. Watching them while they were doing the repairs, they would measure twice and cut once'if you know what I mean, very professional! When they were done, the gates are operating perfectly, I'm very satisfied with their work!

We've been long time customers with Vortex. Matt did a great job repairing our commercial glass entry doors and adjusting the closers.

The office staff did a good job handling my call and I was able to get a repair appointment next day! Service completed well within time frame expected.
So glad to see Matt come back- he helped us last time and did another terrific job. Thanks Vortex!!

We've had an ongoing problem with our main entrance doors and the ability to program them with our access control system. Juan arrived this morning and was able to troubleshoot the problem and offered expert advice on how to fix the problem. Juan was courteous, friendly and professional. He also went above and beyond to locate the problem. We have used Vortex several times for our building and always had great service. Juan is awesome and deserving of a 5 star review!
