Besam Products - Assa Abloy and entrematic.

BESAM was founded in 1962 in Sweden, originally specialising in automatic doors for the healthcare sector. Its early focus on hygiene and accessibility quickly led to wider adoption across commercial buildings, retail environments, and public facilities.

During the 1970s and 1980s, BESAM became known for its pioneering work in automatic sliding, swing, and revolving door systems. Its products were recognised for their reliability, safety, and smooth operation — setting industry standards that shaped the modern automatic entrance market.

In 2002, BESAM became part of the ASSA ABLOY Group, integrating into one of the world’s largest access solutions companies. This merger strengthened BESAM’s global reach and product development, combining decades of mechanical expertise with advanced access control and safety technologies.

Today, the BESAM name remains synonymous with quality automatic pedestrian doors, trusted by installers, architects, and facility managers worldwide. Its legacy continues under the ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems brand, ensuring continuity of support, spare parts, and innovation for all BESAM automatic doors still in use.
