Designed With Inclusion In Mind

Inclusion is at the heart of Portal. The app supports all native smartphone voice assistants and accessibility features.

Completely Hands-Free

Portal turns your smartphone into a magical device that opens doors for you. You don't need to tap, push, wave or touch anything.

Easily Find Accessible Entrances

When Portal is installed on a door, it's automatically populated in the Portal App so they're easy for you to find. If you don't see the facility you visit often with Portal, we'll work with you to get it installed.

Enough Time, Always

By using the Portal App, you'll always have enough time to get through a doorway. Doors will close once you've safely passed through.

How to Use the Portal App

Activate Portal Signal

Once you enable Bluetooth and Location access, your Portal Signal will be enabled. Use Siri or Google Assistant Shortcuts to activate or deactivate your Portal Signal whenever you'd like.

Approach Portal Door

You can leave your phone on your wheelchair desk, pocket or bag, and approach any door installed with Portal.

Open Door, Hands-Free

The door will open for you automatically as you enter the designated opening threshold, and stay open for as long as you need.

Every time I use the Portal app, I get really excited. It's a constant reminder that it's opening doors for me to be independent.

Lina
Student

Before using the app, I got stuck in doors about 40% of the time. Doors would close too soon, or I'd get stuck in the middle of two doors, or the buttons would be out of reach so I'd have to wait for someone to open the door for me. Now, for the first time in my life, I can feel confident going wherever I need to go on campus. And I'm on time to class!

Timo

The app is very easy, just so simple to use, and it works as expected!

Amanda
Student

I'm highly at-risk, so when I heard about Portal, it's been amazing to use everyday because I don't need to expose myself to germs on entrance surfaces!

Kylie
Physical Therapist

The biggest thing that I absolutely love is that I don’t have to worry about the door slamming on me and making a big scene. It’s embarrassing for people like me when that happens. Now I don’t have to worry about it not being open in time and I don’t have to worry about going out of my way to push a button.

Tyler

Portal helps me be more independent. I'm confident that with using this technology every day, I'll be even more successful in school.

Trevor
Counselor

To have an app that opens doors for me to where I don't have to stop my life and keep going is incredible.

Annalise
Mother

Being a mom means that I almost always have my hands full. When I use Portal at the local mall, it's literally a breath of fresh air knowing that I can take my time and focus on my priorities rather than how I'm going to get into the building to get stuff done.

Donae
Grandmother

The first time I used Portal and the door opened, I couldn't believe that now I didn't need to worry about whether a button is going to work, or ask someone to open the door for me.
