 St Alban, the recently opened fashionable new restaurant in London has an open access system designed and installed by Tormax.
The discreetly marked doorway at street level features an imposing set of manual brass doors which open into a lobby area. From here, a floor-to-floor ceiling full glass door utilises the company's technology to maximum effect, gliding to one side to allow guests ion to the main restaurant .
A further automatic sliding door provides dramatic access to the continental styled, mixed toilet facilities.
Launched six months ago, the Frameless operator is said to represent a first in the marketplace for Tormax. Removing the need for visible top or bottom rails that tend to interfere with design aesthetics, the frameless hi-tech operator allows a minimalist internal entrance to be be created.
A fixing system attaches to the top of the door leaves to trolleys, which are hidden inside the operator cover.
Stabilising the door at floor level, an unobstrusive sprung-loaded guide is fitted just under the back of the door leave in its open position, keeping the door under constant pressure and ensuring it cannot swing out.
