In high traffic buildings where numerous people pass in and out on a daily basis, it is the work of an architect and a manager of such facilities to emphasize upon aspects of efficient, energy-saving and safe entry designs. In fulfilling the contemporary requirements, automatic revolving doors have been adopted as one of the determining ways to access trouble areas of high occupancy. The major advantages of revolving doors under such conditions, as discussed in this paper, vary in the field of unnaturally strong traffic control, energy conservation, climate control across buildings, security mechanisms and smartest uses.
1. Optimized Pedestrian Flow
The primary advantage of auto rotating doors comes from the fact that it is easy to move people around very conveniently. When the revolving doors were designed on a segmented mode, they allowed an unlimited number of people to enter and come out simultaneously so contrasted with doors which can? only turn into a repository of people, i.e. the sliding doors or even swinging doors. This type of design will ease congestion to a significant extent improving throughput especially during peak hours and enhance experience to both the employees and the visitors.
2. Superior Energy Efficiency
Auto rotating doors are highly economical as compared to the manual doors. When using conventional doors, the indoor temperature and climate manipulation will be compromised and the HVAC systems will have to overwork themselves in retrieving the vented out conditioned air due to opening up of the doors. Revolving doors, however, give near an all time barrier to the interior and exterior environment. This type of continuous seal significantly lowers the rate of air infiltration and heat transfer and consequently, the cost of energy required to provide comfortable conditions within residential buildings is also kept to a bare minimum. Research shows that above the revolving doors great savings have been done annually on energy bills and on the other hand, this also helps the economy and the environment.
3. Enhanced Climate Control
Revolving doors are environmentally friendly since they are energy efficient and help in keeping indoor temperature uninterrupted. Conventional doors are prone to letting air and undesired outdoor air in and cause one to experience either cold or hot temperature inside their houses especially around entrance doors. The revolving door offers a good seal and so reduces this infiltration therefore giving a more stabilized and comfortable indoor environment. This is important because it enhances comfort among occupants in cases such as hotels and office buildings.
4. Integrated Security and Access Control
The high-traffic facilities would require some security, however, not that it would affect the accessibility; this is a reason why the automatic revolving doors can provide powerful solutions. They can easily be integrated with the high-profile security devices such as key card readers, biometric readers and electronic locks. This will help them regulate access and only the responsible people will gain access. This guarded entry would be required in the case where there is a lack of security in places like in airports, government buildings and corporate headquarters.
5. Ideal Applications: Hotels, Airports, Shopping Malls
Automatic revolving doors are of excellent advantage in a mammoth well-traveled facility where the quality of effectiveness, security, climatic, and aesthetic value matters most:
Hotels: Provide classy access point to the visitor and enhance the first impression besides security.
Airports: Accommodate large masses of humans without any difficulty, demand maximum action of security at the entry points, and minimize the power consumption within the terminal buildings.
Shopping Malls: Develop idea of seamless traffic of customers along with substantial savings in terms of energy consumption of the premises.
In such extreme conditions and a lot of other circumstances automatic revolving doors can not be operated and serve as the most important characteristic to obtain improved results out of buildings and in cooperation with contemporary architectural systems.
