These amazingly popular automatic glass sectional “doors” have revolutionized the sidewalk cafe ambiance of Southern California dining – and ADS Automatic Door Specialists has been at the forefront.
Many local dining and drinking establishments have been transformed by the addition of floor-to-ceiling motorized overhead glass doors that can in moments raise to create an open-air dining experience. The basic design is increasingly common in residential garage doors, but has much wider applications, and is also used for partitioned office spaces and entryways, gyms, and even car repair services. Modified versions work wonderfully as serving counter windows.
