DDA Compliant Doors Essex
Expert advice and installation
In today’s world, it’s important that everyone can access buildings and services, regardless of their physical abilities. The Disability Discrimination Act mandates that designers and builders create public and commercial buildings accessible to people with disabilities. An important part of this is having doors that meet accessibility standards.
DDA compliant doors meet the standards set by the Disability Discrimination Act and the Equality Act. These doors are essential for providing access to people with disabilities, ensuring they can enter and exit buildings with ease.
Key features of DDA compliant doors include
- Wider Doorways: To accommodate wheelchairs and other mobility aids.
- Automatic Opening Mechanisms: To reduce the physical effort required to open doors.
- Low Thresholds: To prevent tripping hazards and allow smooth passage.
- Easy-to-Use Handles and Controls: Positioned at accessible heights and requiring minimal force to operate.
Access Automation specialises in high-quality, reinforced doors that meet disability access requirements. We offer a full range of UPVC, composite, and aluminium doors specifically designed and reinforced to work with our access control and automation systems.
Reinforced Doors for Wider Clear Openings
We recognise that ease of movement is important for all individuals, regardless of their mobility needs. That’s why we design our doorways to be exceptionally wide, ensuring that wheelchairs, walkers, and scooters can comfortably manoeuvre through them.
We engineer our doors to open fully to a width of 1000mm, creating barrier-free entries that allow smooth and unhindered access. Our thoughtful design ensures durability; we reinforce our doors to withstand the rigours of daily use while maintaining their structural integrity. By prioritising both accessibility and strength, we ensure that our doorways provide reliable and long-lasting solutions for everyone who uses them.

Benefits of DDA Compliant Doors
Enhancing Accessibility
The primary benefit of DDA compliant doors is the enhanced accessibility they provide. These doors ensure that individuals with disabilities can navigate buildings independently, promoting inclusivity and equal access to facilities.
Legal Compliance
Installing DDA compliant doors ensures that your building meets legal requirements. This can result in legal issues, including fines and potential lawsuits. Ensuring your premises adhere to the Equality Act 2010 is not only legally prudent but also demonstrates a commitment to social responsibility.
Improved Safety
DDA compliant doors contribute to the overall safety of a building. Features like automatic opening and low thresholds reduce the risk of accidents, benefiting all users, not just those with disabilities.
Increased Property Value
Buildings that are fully accessible and compliant with legal standards are often more attractive to potential buyers or tenants. This can lead to an increase in property value and a broader market appeal.
