Project Year: 2022

Product: ASSA ABLOY UniTurn – West Entrance

Product: ASSA ABLOY RD3 – North Entrance

Architect: BDP
Contractor: VGV Facades

Project Background:  Having been approached by Architect BDP in 2019, we started looking at this new modern building with inclusive design and user comfort as a priority. As a healthcare facility with vulnerable users, the specification called for revolving doors with maximum compartment space, without compromising on aspects such as durability, weather tightness and air permeability to support efficiency.

Solution:  Our specification advisers put forward our 2-Wing UniTurn revolving door for the main entrance, which at 3.6m diameter and including centre sliding doors with emergency break out, was the best high capacity option to meet the entrance demands of space where wellbeing and comfort are paramount. For the North entrance, the solution provided was the equally safe but compact fully automated RD3 3-wing revolving door with night closing doors, both of which were equipped with air curtains as well as the durable COBA Plan.a Entrance Matting.
