Automatic entrance enhances hotel

The Travelodge Kendal, in Cumbria, benefits from a smart set of automatic sliding entrance doors that work in tandem to create a welcoming reception area that can be easily accessed by all guests. TORMAX, renowned for their expertise in door automation, partnered with Coupe Aluminium to design an accessible reception area, recommending their Windrive 2201 sliding door operator as the perfect option to power the bi-parting doors.

Operational in high-traffic hubs around the world, the TORMAX Windrive is a compact and discrete operator with a deserved reputation for steadfast reliability. Having undergone extensive testing that far surpasses current industry requirements, the Windrive operator measures just 142mm x 100mm, yet is still capable of powering a double set of doors weighing up to 100kg per leaf.

“TORMAX entrances are a preferred option for welcoming hotel guests nationwide,” confirms Simon Roberts, MD for TORMAX UK. “In addition to our successful collaborations with well-known brands like Hilton and Ibis, we take pride in having delivered tailor-made solutions to numerous independent hotels over our extensive 60+ years of operation.”

Not limited to the automation of existing doors, TORMAX can provide a full service, encompassing entrance design, manufacture, installation, as well as ongoing maintenance and support throughout the entire lifespan of the door system.

With a diverse range, TORMAX excels in creating customised access solutions that seamlessly integrate with any location or architectural design, whether it’s a contemporary purpose-built hotel or a meticulously restored period property.

For instance, a TORMAX curved automatic door can lend a truly distinctive character to a hotel’s façade, while discreetly concealed floor-mounted operators can seamlessly automate existing traditional doors, offering a less conspicuous solution.

A nationwide team of in-house trained engineers can provide a planned maintenance service, as well as emergency call out assistance if required.
