A new shop front and automatic door entrance at the Halfords branch in Margate has the recently launched OSMA automatic sliding door from J Durrance & Co.
The J Durrance OSMA automatic sliding door replaces the existing manual doors. According to the Essex-based physical security product firm, this ensures easier customer access and the store’s Disability Discrimination Act compliance, and the new aluminium shop front has provided, it is claimed, a stylish and secure entrance. Manufactured and installed by J Durrance, the shop front and aluminium doors were designed to customer specifications, including colour finish to the retailer’s corporate colouring. The 6.75m wide shop front includes an external and internal set of automatic double sliding doors, powered by the OSMA 140B, extending 4.4m long, complete with safety sensors and controlled by the universal Digital Electronic Program Selector (DEPS).
What they say
David McDonagh, Project Manager at Halfords Ltd, said: "The new aluminium shopfront and automatic doors, at our Margate store, integrate well with the visual look of the store and provide our customers with an aesthetically pleasing shop with friendly, easy accessibility. The automatic door operator is also convenient and easy for staff to use." Anthony Parrish, Automatic Doors Divisional Manager at J Durrance, added: "The new OSMA 140 has provided Halfords with a cost effective solution to automate this shopfront. The program selector is used to control the automatic doors with setting options, including hold open or closed, one way or two way operation."
