Here at Doorfit we are always proud to supply the most advanced equipment available, and the ED100 DORMA modular swing door operator is certainly no exception. Its outstanding mechanism provides smooth and reliable movement, whether you have a single or double-leaf door, and the elegant DORMA Contur design ensures it complements the surroundings in any environment.
The ED100 is an exceptional door operator, suitable for either interior or exterior application in a range of demanding settings. The advanced mechanism ensures the door excels in performance in tough conditions and harsh weather, such as extreme cold and strong winds, without the slightest impairment in function.
This has been truly put to the test in one of the world’s most exclusive hotels – the beautiful Ice Hotel in Jukkasjärvi, Lapland. Every winter famous artists from around the world come together to design and create this spectacular hotel, giving guests an inspiring and unique experience in the heart of Lapland.
But this beautiful and demanding environment presents its own problems and, as such, needs intelligent and advanced technology to ensure everything runs like clockwork – including the doors. This is where the ED100 was put to the test: 200km north of the Arctic Circle in The Royal Deluxe Suite, where the interior temperature barely rises above -8 °C.
Usually, cold environments can have a detrimental effect on the speed and function of an automatic swing door operator. As the viscosity of the hydraulic fluid inside the electrohydraulic operator rises, the resistance in the system increases slowing down the mechanism and sometimes preventing it from closing altogether. The ED100 however, doesn’t have a typical hydraulic system, instead it operates on a multi-stage gear and high performance grease that ensures full function in the coldest climates. Plus it has an integrated initial drive control system that will notice the smallest changes in the system and alter the performance of the door automatically to compensate.
So if the ED100 DORMA modular swing door operator can function flawlessly here, it can function flawlessly for you. The expert team at Doorfit can provide a comprehensive service, from the supply and installation, throughout the commissioning and the continued maintenance to ensure your new, durable swing door offers years of reliable and convenient service.
