Project Year: 2022
Product: ASSA ABLOY UniTurn – West Entrance
Product: ASSA ABLOY RD3 – North Entrance
Architect: BDP

Project Background: Having been approached by Architect BDP in 2019, FAAC 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: FAAC’s specification advisers put forward a 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.
