All Glass Automatic Photocell Door
The Madoors USA All Glass Automatic Photocell Door is a frameless, all-glass automatic sliding door system engineered for high-end architectural applications where unobstructed visual transparency, sleek aesthetics, and reliable automated access control are simultaneously required. Designed as an architectural statement piece for premium foyers, luxury retail environments, corporate headquarters, hotels, and public buildings, the Madoors USA all-glass sliding door system delivers a clean, frameless glass facade with fully automated photocell-controlled operation — combining spectacular visual impact with advanced digital microprocessor control technology.
Available in bi-parting and single sliding configurations, the system comes complete with door leaf, safety devices, access control options, side screens, and overlights where required, and is suitable for both beam mounting and wall mounting installations.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
The Madoors USA All Glass Automatic Photocell Door system is controlled by a digital microprocessor control unit incorporating multiple programmable operating modes. The microprocessor provides direct interface capability with building security systems, continuous door position status monitoring, and a built-in UPS for uninterrupted operation during power supply interruptions. Operating parameters including door travel speed and braking characteristics are fully adjustable through the microprocessor to accommodate specific climatic conditions and site-specific performance requirements.
The automatic reversal system activates in both the opening and closing directions when an obstruction is detected during door travel, preventing collision damage to the door panels and eliminating injury risk to users. Photoelectric safety light cells are mounted to project a detection beam across the full doorway width, halting door operation immediately upon beam interruption — providing a continuous active safety barrier independent of the primary motion detection system.
The frameless glass construction utilizes the latest in all-glass sliding door engineering, eliminating visible frame members from the primary glazed face and delivering the unobstructed transparency characteristic of premium architectural glass door installations. All automatic sliding door systems are available as bi-parting or single sliding configurations and are compatible with beam mounting and wall mounting structural support arrangements.
KEY FEATURES
Frameless All-Glass Construction
The door system eliminates visible frame members from the primary glazed face, delivering full visual transparency and an unobstructed view through the door opening. The frameless glass construction is the defining aesthetic characteristic of the system — suited to premium architectural environments where conventional framed door systems would interrupt the design intent of the facade or interior.
Digital Microprocessor Control Unit — Multiple Programmable Modes
The control unit is built on digital microprocessor technology with multiple programmable operating modes, allowing the door system to be configured precisely for the specific operational, security, and environmental requirements of each installation. Speed, braking, hold-open timing, and operational mode parameters are all adjustable through the microprocessor.
Building Security System Interface
The microprocessor control unit provides direct interface capability with building security systems, allowing the door to be integrated into the facility's access control, alarm, and building management infrastructure — enabling centralized monitoring and control of door status alongside other building security functions.
Door Position Status Monitoring
Continuous door position status monitoring is provided through the microprocessor control system, allowing real-time verification of door open, closed, or intermediate position from the building security or management system interface.
Built-In UPS — Uninterrupted Operation
The integrated UPS within the control unit maintains door operation during mains power supply interruptions, ensuring continued access control functionality and preventing doors from becoming stuck in an open or closed position during power outages — a critical operational requirement for high-traffic public and commercial building entrances.
Automatic Reversal — Both Opening & Closing Directions
The microprocessor automatically reverses door travel in both the opening and closing directions upon obstruction detection, preventing panel collision damage and eliminating the risk of injury to users caught in the door travel path during either operational phase.
Photoelectric Safety Light Cells
Photoelectric safety light cells are mounted to project a detection beam across the doorway, halting door operation immediately upon beam interruption. This provides a continuous active safety barrier that operates independently of the primary motion detection system, ensuring user safety is maintained even if the primary detection system fails to register an obstruction.
Climatic & Site-Specific Parameter Adjustment
Microprocessor operating parameters for door travel speed, deceleration, and braking are adjustable to accommodate specific climatic conditions — including high wind environments, temperature extremes, and high-humidity locations — as well as site-specific operational requirements such as high-traffic cycle rates or security hold-open timing.
Bi-Parting & Single Sliding Configurations
The system is available in both bi-parting and single sliding door configurations, providing architectural flexibility for openings of varying width and for building layouts where door retraction to one side only is preferred or structurally required.
Side Screens & Overlights
Side screens and overlights are available where required, allowing the door system to be integrated into full-width glazed entrance wall assemblies — maintaining visual consistency across the entire entrance facade while providing the required weather sealing and structural infill around the door opening.
Beam Mounting & Wall Mounting
The system is compatible with both beam mounting and wall mounting structural support arrangements, providing installation flexibility for new-build projects where structural support can be designed into the building frame and retro-fit installations where wall mounting to an existing structure is the only available option.
Access Control Integration
Access control options are available as part of the complete door system, allowing the automatic sliding door to be integrated with card readers, keypads, biometric readers, or intercom systems for controlled entry applications in addition to open-access photocell operation.
ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION SEQUENCE
Site Survey & Structural Support Assessment
Opening dimensions, structural support arrangement — beam mounting or wall mounting — header load capacity, and floor track alignment are assessed. Building security system interface requirements and access control specifications are confirmed. UPS power supply arrangements are verified.
Mounting Structure Installation
Beam or wall mounting structure is installed and verified for load capacity and alignment. The mounting structure carries the full weight of the door operator unit and glass door panels and must be installed to the dimensional tolerances required for smooth door travel.
Operator Unit & Track Installation
The digital microprocessor operator unit and top track assembly are mounted to the prepared beam or wall mounting structure. Track alignment is verified across the full door travel range. Bottom guide track or floor rail is installed and aligned to the top track centerline.
Glass Door Panel Hanging
Frameless glass door panels are hung from the top track roller carriages and adjusted for vertical alignment, bottom clearance, and lateral positioning. Panel-to-panel and panel-to-frame clearances are set to the specified tolerances for smooth bi-parting or single sliding operation.
Side Screens, Overlights & Weather Seal Installation
Side screen glazing and overlight panels are fitted where specified. Weather seals are installed at panel meeting edges, side jambs, and header to complete the weather envelope of the entrance assembly.
Photoelectric Safety Cell Installation & Alignment
Photoelectric safety light cells are mounted at the specified positions across the doorway and aligned to project the detection beam across the full width of the door opening. Beam alignment and interruption response are tested and verified.
Microprocessor Programming & System Commissioning
Operating parameters — travel speed, deceleration, braking, hold-open timing, and obstruction reversal sensitivity — are programmed into the microprocessor control unit for the specific site conditions and operational requirements. Building security system interface and access control integration are connected, tested, and verified. UPS function is tested under simulated power interruption.
Full Operational Testing & Handover
Complete operational testing is conducted across all programmed modes, automatic reversal in both directions, photoelectric cell safety response, UPS operation, and access control functions. Final adjustments to speed and braking parameters are made. System handover documentation is completed.
