If you’ve ever had to struggle to get a package through a door or have experienced a draft due to a door that wasn’t closed properly, then you know you could benefit from automatic door openers and closers. Although these devices may seem like an unnecessary measure, they can do a lot to make your business facilities more convenient and even increase your security. Here at Coastal Contract Hardware, we want to help you make your business the best it can be. In this article, our team will go over some of the ways in which door openers and closers can help you do that.

Guide to Door Openers and Closers

  • Door Openers- Just as their name suggests, door openers are devices that automatically open a door or set of doors for you. They give your business the convenience of sliding automatic doors without having to deal with the hassle of replacing your existing hardware—our team at Coastal Contract Hardware can simply install door openers onto the doors you already have. These devices are a great way to increase the accessibility of high-trafficked areas, such as the front entrance or loading doors.
  • Door Closers- On the other hand, door closers are devices that mechanically close a door after it has been opened. Door openers have door closing mechanisms, but door closers usually can’t open doors by themselves. Installing door closers increases the security of your business—you’ll never have to worry that you left an important area open. In addition, door closers are required on fire doors in order to close off the flames and prevent them from spreading.

Here at Coastal Contract Hardware, we offer a wide range of both door openers and closers to suit the needs of any business. If you are interested in making your facilities more accessible, convenient, and secure, call our team today.
