Case Study: Automatic Doors: Canning Town Family Practice

Automatic doors were used to provide easy and straightforward access for all the population groups using Canning town family practice doctor’s surgery. This practice has a growing number of patients registering with them month on month and the need for door automation has become a necessary requirement.

Canning Town Doctors Surgery Situation:

Canning Town Doctors Surgery wanted to renovate the entrance of their building to give it a brand new visual while at the same time increasing security and improving access. Apart from addressing the current access difficulties, the practitioners wanted to become DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) compliant. Many of the users are in fact elderly or disabled and find the manual doors rather heavy and cumbersome to open. Parents with young children in pushchairs struggle with the existing manually operated doors.
In order to achieve these objectives, the practitioners of Canning Town Doctors surgery contacted ADSF UK LTD for their assistance in finding the most appropriate automatic entrance solution to meet their goals. Following these enquires, ADSF UK LTD recommended a new automatically driven entrance system that would easily accommodate the vast number of patients the surgery is expected to cater for over the next couple of years.

Canning Town Surgery Automatic Doors Solution:

Following advice from the designers at ADSF UK LTD a site survey was carried out and a recommendation for a new aluminium entrance screen along with a pair of quality Premis 120 automatic swing door openers were installed. This design is by far the best solution that would meet the needs of the surgery.
Aluminium with glass panels will instantly deliver the image of a contemporary, modern and stylish building. Aluminium is the perfect material for door frames holding automatic doors as it is extremely durable and can withstand excessive heat and rain. The glass panels that were used on the screen are manufactured from toughened glass which will not break easily.
The automatic swing door openers addressed the need for safety and security at the premises. They can be easily locked should the need arise whilst the automatic function is very helpful for a rapid access or exit.

Canning Town Surgery Outcome:

The practitioners, staff and patients of Canning Town Surgery were all very pleased with the result of the project. The aluminium entrance screen and the automatic doors improved the aesthetic appeal of the building which was fairly drab and old. Patients who visited the surgery for the first time following the renovation were delighted to have the automatic doors open up for them.
Canning Town Doctors Surgery achieved more than its initial goals. The glass panels on the entrance screen also allowed more light to enter the building’s interiors, making the atmosphere more comfortable and pleasant for patients and staff alike.
In the first few months following the safe and high level installation of the automatic door system, the surgery also noticed a significant reduction in their heating bill as precious heat is maintained within the building itself.
