Revolving doors look professional and serve as a welcoming structure to a building, all doors are available in a choice of different finished looks.

All our glass revolving doors are available as a manual, power assisted or automatic functions.
In addition, our crystal glass revolving door is designed and manufactured to fit the exact dimensions of your building. An all-glass look gives the door a sleeker appearance that also allows light to enter the building.

Our framed revolving doors feature a design you might be more familiar with. However, they still have the latest engineering design and are manufactured from the highest quality component parts to ensure they work reliably. One of the benefits to the framed doors in comparison to glass is that you can have a choice of frame and finished colours and optional overhead heaters.
Power Assisted, Automatic or Manual revolving door
When deciding between power assisted, auto or manual door you need to be thinking about what comes through your doors the most.
For example, an airport will need to have a large revolving door with three wings to allow a good flow of people with luggage. So, with this in mind, when deciding what revolving door you want, you need to think about if you have a lot of deliveries come through and, are you likely to get a high volume of foot traffic at once.
We offer doors powered by a variety of mechanisms, each work well for different businesses:
Power Assisted: The door is powered by a motor that makes it much easier to walk through. This is helpful for accessibility.
Automatic: The door automatically revolves when triggered by a motion sensor. This is the most accessible option and complies with all personal safety standards.
Manual: The standard revolving door, much more energy and cost-efficient.
Number of wings:
The number of wings your revolving door will have with vary with the size of door you wish to have, as well as the traffic you need to accommodate.
Starting with two wings, this type of high-capacity revolving door does not have a centre shaft, therefore affording more space for wheelchairs or luggage trolleys. This also allows you to reflect more natural light into the building.
Four wings are smaller, with more numerous compartments that allow more people to enter and exit at a much faster rate. They are useful for business centres and the leisure sector.
Three wings are used for larger spaces. They are useful for allowing things such as suitcases, pushchairs and bikes to enter with ease. They are Great for the transport sector and businesses that need to prioritise accessibility.
