The Vista 1 system uses "Wave" motion detectors to activate the doors, presence detectors on the approach side provide a light curtain at the threshold and a BEA Bodyguard diffused active infrared presence sensor protects the swing path of the door as well as the guide rails. Optional BEA focused active infrared Super Scans protect the approach and safety sides of the doors.

Horton Automatics invented the sliding door in 1960. We have been installing Horton Automatic sliding doors since 1962. Horton Automatics manufacturers automatic sliding doors for commercial, clean room, light industrial, and heavy, industrial use, as well as ICU/CCU manual sliding doors All of the series are microprocessor controlled. Standard activation is motion detectors mounted to the header on each side of the door for detection of traffic in each direction, with C1304 dual safety beams mounted in the vertical rails of the sidelite or jambs for safety. The Horton optional Apex Door Sensor System is an intelligent system with dedicated data link between the sensors and the door operator. The Apex uses a combination of microwave technology to detect motion and focused active infrared to detect a presence in the door opening and hold the door open until cleared.
