A smart revolving door at the entrance of buildings offers an excellent comfort solution for users. The leisure establishment can adjust its operation according to several characteristics such as climate or peak attendance times. They enhance accessibility for people with reduced mobility by meeting French and European regulatory requirements.

The advantages for leisure establishments

Improving accessibility

Doors equipped with three or four wings can adapt to the flow of people entering or leaving the building. High-traffic leisure establishments need this system to ensure smooth circulation for users.Reducing congestion and waiting timespromotes optimal comfort.

Reducing noise pollution

Revolving doors helpreduce noiseinside your building. When the building is located in a city, the continuous noise of the urban environment can be harmful to your staff and users.

Urban noise (80 dB) impacts physical health and concentration after eight hours of exposure. If your building is near a busy road, traffic noise (83 dB) shows its effects after just four hours of exposure. A road with continuous heavy truck traffic (89 dB) causes the first signs of exposure after just one hour.

Containing dirt

Thanks to revolving doors, dust and dirt are kept outside. Without suitable equipment, in autumn, the wind sweepsdead leavesinto your building. An endless battle then takes place between you and the elements to keep out this plant debris.

Duringpollen season, the situation can quickly become problematic for your employees and building users. Pollen can spread into the lobby and be circulated by the building’s air conditioning.

Limiting thermal losses

Revolving doors offer an effective solution toreduce the building’s energy expensesrelated to air conditioning and heating. With the most sophisticated door systems, you benefit from a solution to optimize the energy performance of your building and your work environment.

They help limitthermal lossesduring exchanges between the outside environment and the inside of the building. There are models that ensure optimal airtightness. Drafts are thus reduced, as are hot or cold air infiltrations. Thermal comfort is maintained for users.

Installing an access control system

If your leisure establishment has subscribers, it may be worthwhile to install anaccess control systemto filter entries. The system consists of an access card reader or a Bluetooth interface to work with smartphones.

An access management dashboard allows your team to control access remotely and obtain a history of entries thanks to access control servers.
