A virtually transparent architectural revolving door that harmonises elegantly with both contemporary glass façades and classical architectural styles is offering architects innovative private and public buildings and cultural landmarks.
The Crystal Tourniket revolving door – which is now available in Australia and New Zealand – has been selected for uses as diverse as 18th and 19th century architectural gems, through to some of the latest designs requiring a strong visual statement combining style with sustainability.
Crystal Tourniket is one of the latest additions to the world’s top selling range of architectural revolving doors, the Tourniket series from Boon Edam, which is used throughout Australia, New Zealand and is being introduced to Papua New Guinea.
Boon Edam Australia Managing Director Michael Fisher says the Crystal Tourniket’s minimalist design uses simplicity to create a unique sense of light and space, while providing traffic flow management, energy-efficiency and exclusion of unwanted urban sounds and pollution.
The Tourniket range effectively excludes ambient heat, cold, and man-made and natural pollution sources through the revolving door’s inherent “always open, always closed” functionality.
Crystal Tourniket achieves these benefits while using a combination of laminated and toughened glass to reduce traditional door framing elements to a bare minimum, while retaining the structural integrity, quality and durability for which Boon Edam is known internationally, says Fisher.
Fisher says Crystal Tourniket entrances can be connected to a building in a variety of ways, to enable better space utilisation, for example or to create a dramatic visual statement, and to provide shelter for people and the door from the outside elements of heat, cold or wind.
Available with a choice of manual, semi-automatic and fully automatic operation, the 3 or 4-wing Boon Edam Crystal Tourniket brings together quality in both engineering and service by conforming to major global Standards and being backed throughout Australasia by OEM standards of installation and service, says Fisher. The Crystal Tourniket is also fully compliant with Australian Standard AS1288 (Glass in Buildings), which specifies safe glazing and installation practices when using glass in buildings.
“Boon Edam’s complete range of entrance and security solutions is unique in Australasia for breath and depth, so architects, builders and specifiers can specify a complete solution from the one reputable and service-oriented source,” he says.
