Accessories
Touchless Switch:
Particular emphasis has been placed on designed products which can now be provided in lieu of more traditional utilitarian versions.
Door Safety Sensors:
In order to meet the requirements of BS EN 16005, automatic doors must be fitted with the correct safety sensors. Franchi use the very latest sensors, including the BEA Flatscan, which replaces full door width sensors.
Accessible WC systems:
By integrating door automation leading to and including AWC, can help meet regulatory expectations but also demonstrates a proactive approach by creating inclusive workspaces.
Barrier Rails:
Powered door installations often require the use of barrier rails to safeguard the approach to the sides of automatic doors. As part of our works we can install these barrier rails in various finishes to suit the situation and environment.
Services
Specification
Franchi offer a full specification service for our automatics products, in the same way we do for our architectural ironmongery products. Working with designers, contractors and end users at every stage of the design and installation process, we can advise on the correct package for each door, as well as writing the specification to cover these packages.
Full site survey
Included within our offer is a full site survey, where the door situation can be accurately assessed and any issues correctly identified. Power requirements, wire-ways and fire alarm & access control integration can be correctly identified and advised upon, avoiding costly and time consuming additional works and visits to site.
Installation
All of our installations are carried out in accordance with BS EN 16005. In addition all of our engineers are ADSA approved, ensuring that strict safety protocols are adhered to and every installation is completed to the highest of standards.
Planned maintenance
Planned preventative maintenance keeps automatic doors safe, compliant, and reliable. Regular inspections identify wear early, reducing breakdowns and costly callouts. Performance is optimized, lifespans extended, and safety standards consistently met. Customers gain minimal downtime, predictable maintenance costs, improved user experience, and complete confidence that their doors operate smoothly, efficiently, and safely all year round with professional expert support.
