Are you looking to reduce the spread in germs in your commercial buildings? Door handles are the germiest objects in hospitals, senior living facilities and factories.

Horton Automatics offers a wide range of products to make it possible to operate automatic doors without having to use your hands. This will ensure that you and your employees are safe. These products are commonly used in areas such as bathrooms, restaurants, and labs where hygiene is essential. These products can be used to prevent cross-contamination with germs and viruses from door knobs.

Cross contamination can be caused by dirty door handles

Cross-contamination is a way for germs to spread between people. This can happen when they touch handicap button buttons or pull doors open. One doorknob can spread germs in public places, such as bathrooms, factories and commercial buildings, or residences.

Some of the most prevalent germs that can spread through door handles are:

• E.coli - Bacteria that can cause food poisoning
• Viruses, such as seasonal flu, influenza, etc.
• Streptococci – bacteria that causes strep and cellulitis
• Fungi - Plant-like organisms which cause rashes
• Protozoa are single-cell organisms that can cause nausea and diarrhea

To keep your building's inhabitants safe, prevent germs settling on surfaces like doors handles. Clean up germ hotspots. This is a great way of preventing the spread of germs. But this can be time-consuming and difficult. It is possible to replace the mechanical handles on your doors with automatic switches.

With hands-free switches, keep your environment germ-free

It is becoming increasingly popular and more accessible to use hands-free technology. Bluetooth devices can now be used to control voice and light with their built-in voice controls.

This is also true for commercial buildings, where motion sensors or wave sensors will allow you to open doors and keep your building entry clean.

There are a few industries that can take advantage of hands free door switches:

• Healthcare facilities – automatic doors in waiting areas, ICU and offices
• Cleanroom environments: waving to open lab doors and research facilities
• Industrial buildings – touchless switches for manufacturing, chemical processing, control rooms, and other areas
• Sliding doors in business environments: sliding doors for shopping centers, warehouses and retail outlets
• Commercial properties - Wave sensors for apartments, condos and offices
