Rondor circular-sliding automatic entrance
When customers arrive at the Marco Restaurant, they will be welcomed by a Rondor circular-sliding automatic entrance from Tormax. Located in the grounds of Chelsea football club, the restaurant is the new venture of celebrity chef, Marco Pierre White. The Rondor consists of two sets of curved glass doors, creating a striking architectural feature. The external doors slide apart, allowing customers into a lobby area where they face a second set of doors leading directly into the restaurant. An integrated air curtain effectively helps maintain the ambient temperature for diners, while the doors are powered by Tormax TEP operators, neatly housed within the circular casing.
Target Living, the interior architects, discussed many options for the entrance way with Tormax but with relatively limited available space the Rondor was specified partly because it creates 50% larger opening space than sliding doors would deliver, and because an airlock can be formed between two sets of doors.
Automatically compliant
Automating an existing manual door to one side of the main revolving door, the Tormax underfloor swing-door operator has been installed at the Royal Institute of British Architects' building in London.
The Tormax Power Drive 1401 is fully compatible with a 240V electrical supply, and improves Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) compliance without intefering with the architecture.

As part of the foyer renovation at the University of Manchester's Student Union, three sets of Tormax automatically sliding doors and two pairs of matching manual swing doors have been installed.
Finished in a powder/metallic coating, the doors are an upgrade from a previous system supplied by the company. The design required an external bi-parting set of sliding doors leading into a lobby area with ticket counter.
The Tormax TLP Slidedoor drive incorporates a control panel allowing staff to adapt the operational mode. This minimises heat costs by reducing door open times.
