Automatic Door Systems in Singapore
ACCESSCO is a BCA-registered and BizSafe-certified automatic door company serving commercial, healthcare, hospitality, and institutional environments across Singapore. As a specialist automatic door supplier, our portfolio covers sliding, telescopic, swing, and hermetic configurations – each engineered to meet specific operational and compliance requirements.
Whether you are specifying an entrance for a hospital operating theatre, a retail concourse, or a corporate headquarters, ACCESSCO provides the automatic door solutions to match the brief, backed by end-to-end support from initial consultation through to long-term maintenance.
Choosing the Right Automatic Door System
The specification decision made at the outset determines how an entrance performs for the life of the building. Before selecting a system, consider the following:
High-footfall environments such as hospital lobbies and retail malls require operators that are tested for high-cycle durability (up to 2,000,000 cycles), fast transit speeds, and robust safety sensor systems.
Lower-traffic office or hospitality entrances may prioritise quiet operation and aesthetic integration over raw throughout capacity.
Standard sliding doors support clear openings up to 3,200mm in bi-parting configuration; telescopic systems extend this to 5,000mm within the same structural header width.
Where wall space adjacent to the opening is limited, a swing or telescopic configuration may be the only viable option.
Automatic door operators are rated to specific maximum door leaf weights, which govern the choice of door leaf construction.
ACCESSCO’s systems support door leaf weights from 85kg per panel (telescopic) up to 350kg (swing) and up to 1,000kg (hermetic, without slope configuration), covering the full range of commercial and institutional door constructions.
The certifications relevant to your project depend on the door type and environment.
DIN18650 and EN16005 apply to automatic pedestrian door systems; SS332:2018 is Singapore’s national standard for automatic door operators; BS EN12207 governs air-leakage performance for hermetic applications; and TUV fire-resistance testing applies to swing-door installations on fire egress routes.
Confirm that your chosen system carries the certifications required by your project’s regulatory and compliance framework.
For projects where the automatic door must interface with fire alarm systems, access control infrastructure, smoke detectors, or building management platforms, confirm that the operator’s intelligent processor supports the required integration protocols.
All ACCESSCO systems support integration with fire and emergency systems, and are compatible with a wide range of access control hardware.

Specification Insights
ACCESSCO’s automatic door entry systems have been delivered across healthcare, retail, aviation, and institutional environments. For those at the specification stage, the following assessment reflects our direct experience across these sectors.
Where this approach delivers the most value:
Projects requiring multiple entrance types under a single compliance framework benefit most from a single automatic door supplier relationship, where certified configurations, regulatory documentation, and installation accountability sit with one partner.
Where early engagement matters most:
Operator dimensions and structural header requirements must be resolved before specification is finalised. For retrofit projects or entrances requiring system integration, ACCESSCO’s site assessment is structured to surface these considerations at the outset.
Getting Started with ACCESSCO
For architects, contractors, and facilities managers looking to buy automatic door systems that are correctly specified from the outset, ACCESSCO’s engagement process is structured around 3 steps:
2) Site assessment
A technical site visit is conducted to evaluate the entrance geometry, structural constraints, traffic volumes, compliance requirements, and system integration needs.
3) Written Quotation
A detailed proposal is prepared based on the assessment findings, covering the recommended system configuration, technical specification, compliance documentation, and full scope of works.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the typical lead time for an automatic door installation in Singapore?
Lead times depend on the system type, door leaf construction, and project complexity.
Standard automatic sliding and swing door installations typically proceed from confirmed order to installation within a few weeks, subject to site readiness and any concurrent civil or electrical works. Hermetic and telescopic systems may carry longer lead times due to the specialist components involved.
Can automatic doors be operated manually if needed?
Yes. Most automatic door systems can be operated manually in the event of a power failure or system fault. The specific behaviour depends on the system type: swing door operators default to a door closer function, while sliding and telescopic doors can typically be pushed open manually once the motor is disengaged.
What is the warranty coverage for ACCESSCO’s automatic door systems?
Warranty terms are confirmed in the written proposal and vary by system type and the scope of work. We recommend discussing warranty coverage and the available maintenance programme options during the consultation, as a structured preventive maintenance contract typically extends system life and supports warranty compliance over the long term.
What is the difference between an automatic door and a manual door system?
An automatic door uses a powered operator, sensors, and an intelligent processor to open and close without requiring physical effort from the user. A manual door system requires the user to apply force to open and close the door, with or without a mechanical door closer.
Automatic systems are preferred for high-traffic environments, accessible design requirements, hygiene-sensitive settings, and entrances where hands-free operation is operationally or regulatorily required.
Manual systems remain appropriate for lower-traffic openings where the additional cost and maintenance of a powered operator is not justified by the operational need.
How do I know which automatic door system is right for my building or project?
For those looking to buy automatic door systems with confidence, the correct system depends on several factors: the required clear opening width, the available structural header and wall space, the door leaf material and weight, the traffic volume and user profile, the compliance certifications required, and whether integration with fire alarm or access control systems is needed.
ACCESSCO’s site assessment process is designed to evaluate all of these factors and recommend the appropriate system configuration for the specific conditions of your entrance.
What is the difference between a full-power automatic door and a low-energy automatic door?
A full-power automatic door entry system opens and closes at its programmed full speed, regardless of how the user approaches or interacts with the door. It is activated by sensors that detect a user’s presence or movement and is suited to high-footfall environments where throughput speed is a priority.
A low-energy automatic door operates at a reduced speed and force, typically activated by a push plate or touchless sensor, and is designed for environments where users require more time to pass through or where the lower operating force is required for safety reasons, such as aged care facilities, accessible entrances, and healthcare wards.
ACCESSCO’s automatic swing door supports low-energy, reduced-speed, and push-and-go modes, making it adaptable to both use cases within the same operator platform.
Can ACCESSCO provide technical documentation and specifications for tender submissions?
Yes. ACCESSCO provides full technical documentation for all systems in our portfolio, including operator specifications, compliance certification references, installation requirements, and dimensional drawings.
As commercial automatic door contractors with BCA registration, we are accustomed to supporting tender and regulatory submission processes and can provide the documentation required by procurement teams, architects, and building authorities.
