The questions we get most about automatic doors, answered from the field by Yuval, one of JDM's elite technicians.
On an automatic sliding door it is either the motor, the controller, or the sensor.
When a door starts opening randomly with nobody there, that is called ghosting, and it means the sensor has gone bad.
The customers who have us out twice a year for maintenance are not the ones calling us with an emergency.

Practical advice for maintaining your sliding doors in Miami-Dade County's local conditions.
Salt deposits build up quickly in Miami-Dade County's coastal air. Rinsing your sliding door tracks with fresh water monthly prevents the corrosive buildup that grinds down rollers and hardware.
UV and salt air degrade weather stripping faster in Miami-Dade County than inland areas. Inspect seals every 6 months and replace them at the first sign of cracking or shrinkage.
Before each storm season, have your sliding doors professionally inspected so weather seals, locks, and frames can withstand wind-driven rain and pressure changes.
Two maintenance visits a year, and most of these calls never happen.
The customers we see twice a year for scheduled maintenance are not the ones calling with an emergency. Ask us what a maintenance schedule looks like for your doors.

Stanley, Horton, Besam, Record, Nabco, dormakaba, ASSA ABLOY, and GEZE, plus most of the older equipment those companies absorbed over the years. Stanley operators are the ones we see most in US retail and grocery. You do not need to know who installed yours. Send a photo of the header and we can usually identify the system before the truck rolls.
That is called ghosting, and it means the sensor has failed. When a door starts opening at random with nobody in front of it, the sensor is bad and needs replacing. Adjusting or reprogramming will not hold, because the part itself has gone.
Usually yes. Sourcing uncommon parts and discontinued hardware is a large part of what we do, and many older operators were absorbed by the manufacturers still trading today, so the parts have a current equivalent. Where a part genuinely no longer exists, the operator can normally be replaced without touching the panels or the framing, which costs a fraction of a new entrance.
It can be, and it is worth treating as urgent. A door that will not close leaves the building open and unconditioned. A door that closes too fast or too hard is a strike risk, especially for older people and children. Both usually trace to the operator, the closing force setting, or a presence sensor that is no longer holding the door.
Both, and which one depends on what the sensor is doing. A dirty lens or a sensitivity setting we correct on site. A sensor that has started ghosting, opening the door at random, has failed and gets replaced. We do not adjust a dead part and call it fixed.
Yes. When the operator has reached the end, we replace it and match the new unit to the door, the traffic it takes, and the activation setup already in place. We will not tell you it needs replacing before we have seen it run, because plenty of doors that look finished only need a carrier and a belt.
Yes. Scheduled maintenance is where automatic doors pay you back, because sensors drift and belts stretch gradually rather than failing all at once. We run quarterly, semi-annual, or annual visits with a written record of what was checked, adjusted, and replaced.
Yes. Our technicians are trained directly on the operators they service, and between Stanley, Horton, Besam, Record, Nabco, and Dorma that covers most of what is installed out there. If you can send a photo of the header before the visit, we will have the right parts on the truck instead of making it a two-trip job.
Commercial automatic door calls get priority scheduling, and we run same day or next day in most of our markets depending on capacity in your area. If the door is stuck open and the building is exposed, say so when you call and we will treat it as an emergency.
It depends on what failed. A sensor re-aim or a belt is at the low end, an operator or control board is at the high end, and a full operator replacement is a different conversation again. We quote flat-rate after seeing the door, so the number you approve is the number you pay.

In my experience, salt air in coastal Miami-Dade County speeds up corrosion on metal parts: tracks, rollers, and lock mechanisms all take a beating. That is why my crew uses marine-grade, corrosion-resistant parts on every coastal repair so the fix lasts. I recommend maintenance every 6 to 12 months to get the most life out of your sliding door system near the water.
