At Horton Automatics, we’re committed to creating safe, accessible, and durable entrance solutions for every environment — especially where comfort and reliability are essential.
We were proud to supply and support the installation of two Horton 2021+ HD sliding door packages at Sandstone Court, an Extra Care housing scheme in Telford operated by Housing 21.
This scheme, developed by Deeley Construction and façade partner Spec-Al Facades Ltd, provides supported independent living for older adults. It was essential that every element of the building reflected comfort, accessibility, and long-term performance.
As part of this, Horton Automatics was selected to supply high-durability automatic doors tailored for heavy usage — including secure access to the onsite buggy store.
Our Scope of Work
We provided:
- 2 x Horton 2021+ HD sliding door packages
- Integrated screen-work for a seamless fit
- Complete automation systems to ensure smooth, reliable access
Installed to provide controlled and safe entry into the buggy store area, the doors were designed with everyday practicality in mind — enabling residents to move mobility scooters in and out safely and independently.
Why Horton 2021+ HD?
The Horton 2021+ HD (Heavy Duty) system was the ideal choice for Sandstone Court due to its:
- Robust build quality – built to withstand high-frequency use
- Smooth, quiet operation – perfect for residential environments
- Full DDA compliance – supporting independent access for all residents
- Low-maintenance design – reducing operational disruptions and cost
- Smart integration with screen-work – for a professional, clean finish
Collaboration at It’s Best
We’re proud to have worked alongside:
- Spec-Al Facades Ltd, who handled the façade and entrance interface
- Deeley Construction, leading the project delivery
- Housing 21, delivering high-quality extra care housing for the community
This project reflects the importance of great partnerships — and how premium entrance systems like Horton 2021+ can enhance safety, independence, and accessibility in supported living environments.
Better Living Through Better Access
At Horton Automatics, we understand that a well-designed entrance isn’t just about functionality — it’s about empowering people, creating inclusive spaces, and building for the future.
Sandstone Court is now equipped with doors that residents can rely on every day.
