Automatic doors: These are the doors that open directly when requested automatically. You do not need to manually pull or push when the elevator arrives. This type of door is divided into:
Telescopic door: It is for the door to have two leaves that open in one direction, and this type of door is suitable for narrow spaces, and the width of the elevator door must not be less than 75 cm so that this type of door can be used.
Center door: It means that the door has two leaves that open from the middle (the center), each door opens in a different direction from the other, and the width of the elevator door must not be less than 95 cm to choose this type of door.
Semi-automatic doors: These doors are of a low degree, but they are practical and require you to open the door with your hand to enter the elevator. It can be installed in almost any size, and it closes with an automatic lock as soon as the elevators move.
Manual doors: They are doors that are not linked to any technology and are usually used in workplaces and in food elevators. They can be opened in a horizontal or vertical direction, and they can also be installed to any size.
