Case Study: Automatic Doors Office Block

Automatic Door Situation:

ADSF UK LTD was recently contacted by the management company of an office block in Swindon who needed assistance with their door system. Their criteria included a contemporary, modern design to complement the building's architecture.

The visual is one of a seamless design, with no visible or obtrusive parts on show. A durable material is required that can withstand the harsh elements we experience in this country while at the same time isolating outside noise and dust pollution. A high quality door is needed and must be designed for heavy traffic use yet requiring minimum maintenance.

With these defined and clear objectives set out, the management of the office block was able to clearly relay these requirements to ASDF UK LTD. Our design team were then able to create a fantastic, bespoke automatic entrance solution for the office block.

Automatic Doors Solution:

In response to the needs of the office block management team, ADSF UK LTD supplied and installed a veiled Premis automatic bi-part opener with armour plate glass doors.

This design of automatic door operator has a closed header design, so the finished product looked completely seamless.

Used in conjunction with the bi-part sliding motion, glass doors, and light weight aluminium frames, the automatic entrance system delivered an impressive, classy, and modern look which was easy to amalgamate with the building design.

The concealed automatic door openers improve the reliability and daily performance of the door system as dirt and dust is kept away from the slide and track.

As a direct result, only minimal maintenance is needed in order for the automatic door openers to keep working reliably and efficiently and prevent any possible malfunctions caused by the accumulation of dirt.

Of course the armour plate glass doors mean that it is made of toughened glass that can withstand extreme harsh weather conditions, preventing the possibility of fractures. The toughened glass in addition also prevents outside noise penetrating the property which is ideal in a busy office situation where noise and outside interference can easily distract the employees working inside the premises.

The automatic sliding system, coupled with the toughened glass door, assists with the reduction of heating and cooling utility bills. The amount of energy being used is significantly reduced because the warm air during the rare summer months and the cold air during the long dark winter months is not able to penetrate the building.

Swindon Office Block Outcome:

The management team of the office block were more than pleased with the outcome of this project. They are confident that the entire door system is durable and has been carefully manufactured by skilled fabricators using high quality materials.

An automatic door entrance system of this kind is of course perfect for a building that boasts numerous individual offices. Automatic doors assist in managing the flow of pedestrian traffic in and out of the office block even at key times of the day when many employees start and finish at the same time.

The concealed overhead design is not only of a smart appearance but it in addition protects the track.

The bi-part sliding door looks elegant, classy and modern yet practical at the same time because of the minimum maintenance that is required.
