Doors

Whether they're shutting out cold, germs, sound or unwanted intruders, specialist doors come in all shapes and sizes and with a raft of regulation attached. Here are three seminars from some of the UK's leading doors specialists.
A presentation aimed at helping architects and specifiers understand how to select the most suitable automatic door system for a particular application. This seminar explains the British Standards in plain English, helps avoid common problems associated with automatic doors, and offers tips on ensuring safe, efficient traffic flow.

DORMA provides the total package around the door and beyond, from door hardware to glass fittings, automatic doors and movable walls, all backed up by a nationwide team of service and maintenance engineers.
This informative one-hour presentation guides forward-thinking architects through industrial door specification, with advice on correct application, the implications of legislation and energy efficiency directives (including British Standards, Health And Safety At Work and Part L), and innovations in industrial door drives and controls. Gilgen points out that, by saving energy, modern industrial doors also help save a lot of money while keeping the workplace safe and clean.
