GEZE: The Benefits of Automatic Revolving Doors – a Modern Solution for Today’s Architecture

  • 3 Feb 2025

GEZEAndy Iredale, National Sales Manager (Automatics) at GEZE UK, discusses the benefits of installing an automatic revolving door in a building… 

In an age where efficiency, sustainability, and user experience are paramount in building design, automatic revolving doors emerge as a compelling choice. These architectural features do more than just add a touch of elegance to a building’s entrance; they offer a range of benefits that enhance both functionality and aesthetic appeal. Let’s now explore those benefits in more detail.

Energy Efficiency

One of the most significant benefits of automatic revolving doors is their energy efficiency. Unlike traditional swinging doors, revolving doors create a barrier that minimises the exchange of indoor and outdoor air. This design prevents drafts and helps maintain a consistent indoor climate, reducing the reliance on heating and cooling systems. In a world grappling with climate change and rising energy costs, utilising revolving doors can lead to significant savings on energy bills while contributing to a building’s sustainability goals.

Improved Traffic Flow

Automatic revolving doors are designed to facilitate the seamless movement of people in and out of a building. In high-traffic areas, such as hotels, shopping centres and office complexes, these doors allow for a continuous flow of foot traffic without the need for manual operation. This not only speeds up entry and exit but also reduces congestion at the entrance, creating a more pleasant experience for visitors. For businesses, this efficiency can translate into higher customer satisfaction and retention.

Aesthetic Appeal

From an architectural standpoint, automatic revolving doors are undeniably striking. They provide a sleek and contemporary look that enhances a building’s facade. With various design options available – ranging from glass finishes to custom sizes – these doors can be tailored to match the specific aesthetic of any building. A well-designed entrance can set the tone for a positive first impression, making automatic revolving doors an attractive choice for businesses looking to make an impact.

Noise Reduction

In urban environments, noise pollution is an ever-present challenge. Automatic revolving doors can help mitigate this issue by creating a sound barrier between the bustling outside world and the tranquillity within. This reduction in noise enhances the overall comfort of occupants, making spaces more enjoyable for both visitors and employees.

Enhanced Hygiene

Hygiene can be enhanced by reducing the need for people to touch door handles or push doors, helping to limit the spread of germs and bacteria. Motion sensors that detect movement and automatically open and close doors can achieve this. This is especially important in high-traffic areas like hospitals, shopping centres and restaurants, where maintaining hygiene is essential.
