Breakout Doors

To protect against the spread of bacteria and other dangerous microbes, automatic doors provide an excellent method to prevent the spread of germs by eliminating the need for doors and hardware to be touched. If an automatic door is not used, then it’s important to consider how to prevent the spread of germs from the role of high touch manual doors and hardware being handled. Bacteria and other microbes can live on these hardware surfaces for hours, transferring from one person to another.

The door hardware, and even the door itself, can be protected against the growth of many microbes. Hygenix Entrance Systems is pleased to offer
