Smart Doors Dublin

Intelligent access with the technology designed into the door, frame and surrounding architecture. High-gloss furniture-grade MDF, bespoke profiles, discreet controls and project-specific integration — developed as one complete door project rather than a collection of visible add-ons.

The principle

Nothing added as an afterthought.

The door leaf, frame, access method, sensors, controls, power provision, service access and surrounding wall can be coordinated together. The exact internal arrangement is project-specific and is not published as a standard recipe; the client sees a clean architectural surface and a system designed for the opening.

One-touch accessA discreet interaction can be configured to trigger an opening sequence where suitable.
Two-touch controlProject logic can distinguish deliberate commands without relying on a conventional visible keypad.
Gesture lockingSurface gesture concepts can be developed as part of the access-control brief.
Private code gestureFor selected projects, the visible face can remain minimal while the access logic sits behind the finished surface.

A Smart Door is treated as a connected architectural system. Where the project requires wall preparation, sub-frames, cavities or service routes, Doors Dublin can coordinate the construction work around the opening as part of the agreed scope.

Materials & finish

Piano-lacquer MDF. Built for the surface.

For the high-gloss versions shown here, Doors Dublin can work with high-grade furniture-quality MDF and a controlled multi-stage finishing route: accurate machining, repeated preparation and sanding, specialist priming, colour build-up, further surface correction and lacquer finishing. The objective is depth, flatness and reflection quality closer to high-end furniture or piano lacquer than an ordinary painted door.

Safe movement

Sensors watch the opening while the door moves.

Where a Smart Door includes powered movement, the safety strategy can combine presence or obstruction sensing, controlled speed and force, monitored movement and configured stop/reverse behaviour. The exact arrangement depends on the selected automation and the real opening, and is tested during commissioning.

Architectural integration

The wall can be part of the door project.

Some smart-door ideas need more than a leaf and frame. The opening may require a new sub-frame, local wall reconstruction, concealed service zones, panel alignment, lighting coordination or a completely rebuilt reveal. Where appropriate, Doors Dublin can include those construction elements in the project so the finished result reads as one composition.

Gesture access

Your gesture. Your key.

A clean surface does not have to mean a conventional visible reader. For selected bespoke projects, gesture-led interaction can form part of the access concept. Final verification hardware, fail-safe behaviour, manual operation and security logic are resolved for the specific use case rather than exposed as a generic public recipe.

Gesture-led access

Surface interaction, recognition and unlocking can be planned as a discreet sequence where the project and selected technology permit it.

Private by design

The website explains the client-facing concept and project logic, not the exact concealed construction, sensor layout, security configuration or proprietary finishing sequence. Those details are resolved directly for an approved project.

For pricing, these are bespoke commissions rather than fixed-price catalogue doors. Cost depends on size, finish, frame, access/control package, automation, wall work and installation complexity.

Smart Doors knowledge cluster

One project. Connected specialist pages.

The Smart Doors section is built as a connected knowledge route so a client, designer or the Doors Dublin AI Assistant can move from the visual concept to the practical part of the project without losing context.

There is no public fixed price for a bespoke Smart Door.

Send the opening, approximate size, finish direction and what you want the door to do. The AI Door Assistant can organise the first brief; Doors Dublin then reviews feasibility and the project scope.
