Micom Automatic Door Operators: Reliable Solutions for Commercial Buildings

Automatic door operators are an essential part of many commercial buildings. They improve accessibility, support daily traffic flow, and help entrances function smoothly in busy environments.

At Supreme Lock Solutions Ltd., we regularly install Micom automatic door operators for commercial buildings and managed properties across Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. We work with property management companies, businesses, and facilities that rely on dependable automatic doors every day.

This article explains why automatic door operators matter, what makes Micom operators a reliable choice, and why proper installation and door condition are critical for long-term performance.

Why Automatic Door Operators Matter in Commercial Buildings

Automatic door operators are not just a convenience. In many buildings, they are essential for:

  • accessibility and barrier-free entry
  • high-traffic entrances
  • professional and medical facilities
  • retail and commercial environments
  • managed properties with shared entrances

When an automatic door fails, it can create:

  • accessibility issues
  • tenant complaints
  • traffic flow problems
  • safety concerns
  • unexpected downtime

That’s why proper installation and ongoing service matter.

Why We Install Micom Automatic Door Operators

Micom automatic door operators are designed for commercial use, where reliability and consistency are critical.

They are well-suited for:

  • high-traffic entrances
  • commercial and professional buildings
  • managed properties
  • environments where dependable operation is required

As with any automatic door operator, performance depends not only on the operator itself, but also on how the entire door system is set up.

The Door System Matters as Much as the Operator

One of the most common mistakes with automatic doors is focusing only on the operator.

An automatic door operator cannot perform properly if:

  • the door is sagging
  • hinges are worn
  • the door does not latch consistently
  • the door closer is failing or misadjusted
  • panic hardware or latching hardware is worn

In many cases, operator problems are actually door alignment or hardware problems.

That’s why every Micom operator installation we complete considers the entire door system, not just the motor.

Common Automatic Door Operator Issues We See

We are often called to service automatic doors that are experiencing:

  • doors stopping mid-cycle
  • doors not opening fully
  • doors closing but not latching
  • inconsistent operation
  • operators struggling or hesitating
  • frequent service calls for the same entrance

In many cases, these issues are caused by underlying door or hardware problems rather than the operator itself.

Professional Installation Makes the Difference

A proper Micom automatic door operator installation includes:

  • inspecting door alignment and hinge condition
  • confirming smooth door movement
  • verifying proper latching
  • adjusting closers correctly
  • ensuring consistent and safe operation
  • confirming the door closes and secures every time

When installation is done correctly, the operator lasts longer and performs more reliably.

Automatic Door Operators and Property Management

Property managers rely heavily on automatic doors in managed buildings.

Operators are often installed on:

  • main entrances
  • shared access points
  • high-traffic doors
  • accessibility-required entrances

When these doors fail, it quickly becomes a tenant issue.

We work with property management companies to keep automatic doors operating properly and to correct door issues before they turn into repeat service calls.

Ongoing Service and Support

Automatic door operators are mechanical systems, and like all mechanical systems, they require maintenance and occasional service.

Supreme Lock Solutions Ltd. provides:

  • installation of Micom automatic door operators
  • service and troubleshooting
  • door alignment and hardware correction
  • support for operator-equipped doors

Addressing small issues early helps prevent downtime and costly repairs later.
