As a proud member of the Allegion family, we celebrate the anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Thirty-six years after it became law, its impact is still shaping how we design welcoming, accessible spaces. As door and hardware professionals, we see that impact every day. Our purpose is to look beyond minimum requirements to ask what makes an environment truly inclusive and build a world that is more accessible for everyone.

The Real Cost of Cheap Automatic Doors
When evaluating automatic doors for your next project, the upfront price tag rarely tells the whole story. Here are the key considerations that separate a sound investment from a costly mistake.
Poor Application Fit
Not all doors are made for every use. Healthcare, retail, and industrial settings each demand different performance levels and certifications.
Failing ADA and Code Compliance
Automatic doors must follow strict standards to be safe and accessible. Non-compliant doors expose building owners to liability and costly retrofits.
Difficult Installation and Integration
Some low-cost options require more labour and specialist expertise during installation, erasing any initial price advantage.
Higher Long-Term Maintenance Costs
Cheaper components wear faster, leading to more frequent service calls, unplanned downtime, and higher total cost of ownership.
