It is all too common these days, anywhere and everywhere, to access hotels, restaurants, shopping malls, office and institutional buildings, airports, hospitals, etc via automatic doors. Be it a folding, revolving, sliding or swinging door, chances are, it’s a Swiss-made TORMAX.
TORMAX is a division of the Landert Group, a privately owned Group of companies, which installed Europe’s first automatic door in 1951. The company has fanned out worldwide with 20 Group companies including more than 500 distributors and is, today, a leading manufacturer of automatic door systems.
REVOLVING DOORS
Apart from lending elegance and style to buildings, revolving doors allow a constant and unhindered two-way flow of people entering and leaving. The sluice principle of revolving doors keeps noise, dust and outside odours away from building interior. It effectively shields the indoor climate from the outside cold or heat which translates to savings in energy consumption. Further, there is the safety aspect of revolving doors insofar as reliable sensors integrated into the system guarantee maximum safety for users, protects against strong gusts of wind and expedites exits/rescue and escape during emergencies.
TORMAX systems come in four variants: Classic (small or large), Light Frame or Full Glass and depending on application range, 3 or 4-winged or leafed revolving doors are available. What sets TORMAX apart from the others is its unique range of profile designs, sizes, materials and colours to match the overall architectural concept. In addition, Access Control with TORMAX automatic revolving door systems provide optimal control of access when used with
other systems such as card-readers, biometric recognition or other security measures.
SWING DOORS
Where manual activation of doors is “cumbersome or difficult” – particularly for the elderly, the frail or persons bearing packages – TORMAX automatic swing doors are ideal solutions to providing easy and comfortable access and/or mobility. In single- or doubleleaf variants, TORMAX systems are easy to mount, suitable both for new buildings and retrofits.
Be it for the home or elsewhere, TORMAX offers variable design options which, combined with the almost unlimited technical possibilities, make it possible to automate every swing door optimally. What’s more, the choice of door filling is not limited namely wood, glass, plastic, steel, etc.
SLIDING DOORS
TORMAX automatic sliding door systems provide both convenience and flexibility for effortless access without contact with the door. There are four types of sliding doors available: Linear, Telescope, Curved, Angular and Multi-functional so you can find the right door solution for every building, whether for installation during its construction or for retro-fitting.
TORMAX sliding doors can be controlled by by a key, badge, video monitoring and biometric data; with a hold-up closure at a press of a button and can be incorporated into existing systems.
FOLDING DOORS
An automatic folding door provides an ideal solution when spacechallenged. Its particularly compact construction makes this type of door the complete space-saver, perfect for retro-fitting during conversions or renovations. TORMAX folding door system is supplied completely prefabricated from attractively shaped special profiles, with aluminium profiles that can neither trap nor crush limbs or people and with integrated lip seals ensure a high level of safety and guard against drafts.
Additional functions include air-lock and porch coordinated door systems control access or prevents the movement of air between the interior and the exterior, and can integrate easily into existing building management systems.
THE DRIVE
The prime move or “heart” of automatic doors is the drive and, for TORMAX, it is their very own iMotion, a new generation of intelligent, reliable and economical automatic drive systems. Designed, developed and manufactured by TORMAX, Aside from quiet operation, iMotion drives allow each door to be configured for safety and operational needs and the nimble drive is distinguished by smooth movements with swift start and rapid braking performance.
Other advantages include durability and very long service life, problem-free integration into building systems and manufactured exclusively from materials according to RoHS standard. An extra bonus is that the motor is maintenance-free!
