Case Study: Automated Steel Door Installation at Granta Park
Elite Entrance Systems was appointed to install five automated steel doors across five floors of a parking structure at Granta Park.
The project required a robust and consistent entrance solution for each level. Our engineers installed five all-steel Strongdor doors and frames, with each door fitted with Record DFA automation.
The steel doors and frames provide a durable solution suited to the demands of a parking structure, while the Record DFA operators provide automatic opening and closing.
Installing the same door and automation system across all five floors also created a consistent appearance and standard of operation throughout the building.
Scope of works completed
- Supply and installation of five Strongdor steel doors
- Installation of matching steel door frames
- Installation of one door across each of the five floors
- Installation of Record DFA automation to each door
- System set-up and configuration
- Testing and commissioning of all five automated doors
Outcome
Following installation, all five doors were tested and checked to confirm that the automatic operators were working correctly and that each door was opening and closing as intended.
The completed project provides a consistent automated entrance solution across the parking structure, combining the strength of steel doors and frames with reliable automatic operation.
This project is a good example of how automatic door installation can be coordinated across multiple floors to provide a practical and uniform solution throughout a commercial building.
Elite Entrance Systems installs, repairs and maintains automatic swing doors for commercial, industrial and public-sector sites.
