Products:
FFM Folding pedestrian doors, Insulated roller shutters, High-speed doors
Gilgen doors are designed to improve ease of access, security, and energy efficiency and have been installed as part of a wider refurbishment programme at the hospital. The installation includes Gilgen FFM automatic pedestrian doors, industrial roller shutters, and high-speed doors.
Gilgen FFM folding pedestrian doors have been installed at the main entrance of the maternity wing and a main corridor leading to the Emergency Department. Gilgen FFM doors have proven their reliability in other locations throughout the hospital and are the preferred choice since they maximize the clear open width of the entrance for ease of use.
GDUK Door Solutions roller shutters have been installed in the loading area and match a shutter previously installed by GDUK. The coated steel automatic shutters feature an insulated panel that helps minimize heat loss. A digital keypad provides additional security along with a CCTV camera and secure office for authorized personnel.
A GDUK high-speed door provides access from the hospital corridor to the loading area. Radio fob operated from each side, the high-speed door features a blue fabric curtain with a vision panel, full safety features, and is integrated with a fire alarm system to fail-safe open. High-speed doors provide barrier-free access to authorized vehicles whilst minimizing heat loss along with improved cleanliness, reduced utility costs, and lower carbon footprint.
In addition, two folding shutters have been installed in the maintenance bay of a hazardous waste disposal area. Installed side-by-side, the largest shutter is 5.9m wide by 2.7m high and provides secure access to this area of the facility.
