As the past few months have given us pause to consider how we interact with the many surfaces in our life, smart technology is here to help tackle one of the most prominent-the door.
While touch-free door technology may not have been invented with this particular moment in mind, these connected devices are useful for handling one of the trickier surfaces you encounter every day.
Autoslide
Autoslide makes automated opening (and closing!) solutions for patio doors, pocket doors, and barn-style doors-basically any type of door that involves a sliding mechanism. And while Autoslide-equipped doors can be controlled with a remote, the manufacturer made them even more clever and convenient. An accompanying smartphone app allows Autoslide owners to control all the functions of their sliding doors-opening, closing, even locking-via a few taps on their device, or, better still, by voice command.
Autoslide’s Wi-Fi connectivity also means you can use these features from across the home or across the world, enabling easy contactless delivery options from wherever you are.

Wave to Open
For those looking for a truly touch-free solution, the MS08 Wave to Open system from BEA Sensors may be a great fit. Leveraging some long standing radar technology to futuristic ends, the Wave to Open system allows users to, well, wave to open doors-no apps needed. BEA offers a variety of “wave” activation plates-small wall-installed plates users motion in front of to trigger a door opening-and the system works with all manner of doors, from sliding to swinging and more.
Users can also adjust the distance required for triggering the activation, from four to 24 inches.

August Wi-Fi Smart Lock
If you already have doors that allow for a measure of touchless operation (step handles, etc), but want to add some additional smarts, consider installing August Wi-Fi Smart Locks. These brainy bolt operators allow users to operate them from just about any device imaginable-phone, tablet, watch, and even that most ancient of tech, the voice.
August’s Wi-Fi connectivity also means owners can operate them from anywhere in the world, schedule locked/unlocked times, check the status of their doors, and-best of all-grant virtual guest keys to easily facilitate socially distant deliveries or other contactless services.
The August Wi-Fi Smart Lock is available for $249.
SureFlap Microchip Pet Door
This seven-inch-by-seven-inch flap, which installs directly in your door or wall and is ideal for small dogs and cats of all sizes, operates off reading your animal’s implanted microchip, or, if they don’t have one, by reading the included RFID collar key. Animals simply present themselves by the SureFlap and the device automatically unlocks, granting them freedom, or the comfort of home, and automatically re-locking as soon as they exit range.
The SureFlap features a four-way locking system to ensure that only approved animals are entering and exiting, and includes a “Curfew” mode that allows owners to designate the device only open during certain hours. The SureFlap can also read up to 32 different animals, if your home is more menagerie than mansion.
The SureFlap Microchip Pet Door for Doors is available for $229.
