iMotion™ swing door welcomes guests at Plaza
01 March 2010
The refurbished Crowne Plaza Ealing, now welcomes guests with a stainless steel, contemporary revolving entrance system combined with iMotion™ swing door from Tormax™.
Precision-manufactured from highly polished stainless steel, the profile on the revolving door wings is just 40mm x 20mm which combined with an all-glass canopy and absence of a centre column, gives the entrance a graceful elegance and delicacy. Allowing easy access for all, the adjacent automatic swing door provides ample space for wheelchair users or those with quantities of luggage. Situated in a prime location on the busy Hanger Lane Gyratory System, the Crowne Plaza now boasts a stylish brasserie, bar, health club, club lounge and meeting rooms as well as 131 large en-suite bedrooms.
Architects Alastair Bell Design Limited specified Tormax™ for the main entrance, setting the standard for guests as they arrive at the hotel. Smoothly and silently rotating the modern three-leaf door, the Tormax 5251™ revolving operator delivers exceptional reliability that is the result of extensive product testing and development at the Swiss head-office.
Offering optimum safety, all Tormax™ revolving doors are manufactured using safety glass and feature technologically advanced activation sensors, safety pressure strips, finger protection mechanisms and most importantly a drive with high dynamic breaking power. If required, Tormax™ can include hi-tech touch-less sensors on the door wings that recognise a slow-moving person and automatically adjust door speed.
In the case of an emergency, guests at the Crowne Plaza can rest assured that the rapid break-out device on the revolving door will allow for swift evacuation. Recognising the need for sustainable solutions in todays market, a Tormax™ revolving entrances is one of the best methods of minimising heat loss form a building when faced with high levels of foot traffic, whilst the operators themselves are meticulously engineered to consume minimum energy.
In addition, all Tormax™ new iMotion™ operators, such as the 1401 underfloor swing door drive installed at the Crowne Plaza, are manufactured almost entirely using recyclable materials.
