Abstract: An automated door system includes a first door control module configured to be mounted in a fixed position relative to a powered door and a second door control module configured to be carried by a user and configured to be in electronic communication with the first door control module to control at least one of an opening actuation and a closing actuation of the powered door. A method of controlling the powered door may include wirelessly electronically connecting a second door control module to a first door control module, determining a proximity of the second door control module to the first door control module, an automating the opening and closing of the powered door in response to a position of the second door control module relative to the first door control module.
