More sustainable buildings thanks to the energy savings provided by automatic doors
Door automation to reduce electricity consumption
In cities and municipalities there are buildings of different shapes and sizes. On the one hand, there are the oldest structures, which are gradually restored to optimize their facilities and bring them up to date with the 21st century. On the other, avant-garde buildings imbued with innovation emerge, simplifying the lives of those who work or live in them.
Automatic doors not only provide comfort and security for users, but also play a crucial role in energy efficiency in buildings. In recent years, this aspect of reducing energy consumption has acquired notable relevance in the construction and renovation of buildings. Smart accesses are a valuable tool to achieve this goal. Numerous construction companies and architecture studios are committed to integrating automatic doors as a component that contributes to reducing energy expenditure in all kinds of constructions.
At Manusa we are aware of the importance of sustainability and the preservation of the environment to promote a more habitable planet. One of the main benefits of automatic doors in terms of energy efficiency lies in its characteristic of minimizing heat or cold losses in buildings. Access automation prevents a door from being left open by mistake or carelessness, which could cause strong temperature changes when the heating or air conditioning system is in operation.
In addition, Manusa's automatic doors can be remotely controlled and programmed to close at specific times of the day, such as off-peak hours or at night, thus increasing energy efficiency and helping to certify buildings as consumption low energy
Manusa's intelligent accesses are also beneficial in energy rehabilitation projects conceived by architects. In such buildings, work is being done to adapt them to the 21st century, seeking to minimize the amount of energy needed to maintain a comfortable temperature and achieve sustainability goals.
Within our catalog we have specific solutions for various sectors, including the health, residential, commercial, hospitality or office areas of a company. Hospitals, hotels, restaurants, shops, shopping centers and residential buildings seek to reduce their energy consumption, and automatic doors contribute to this purpose.
Automatic sliding doors, in their standard and telescopic versions, are an ideal choice for access from the street. They are ideal in contexts with a high flow of people, providing a functional and high-quality solution designed to blend harmoniously with the architectural environment and facilitate movement without physical contact. These doors are especially effective in overcoming architectural barriers that could hinder passage, as well as optimizing energy efficiency in an area as critical as access from the outside, where a door that is not properly closed when entering or leaving the building could have a negative impact.
Manusa also offers automatic swing doors, being a perfect solution for building entrances that, due to architectural reasons, cannot accommodate sliding doors. Swing doors guarantee a better use of space, being especially suitable for intensive use and facilitating the flow of people. They can be installed both in external accesses and in the interior of the building, and as with the sliders, they ensure that there are no sudden changes in temperature due to carelessness when closing, entering or leaving.
These and other models of automatic doors can be incorporated both in recently built buildings and in old structures that require optimization to achieve energy revitalization. If you want to add value to a building, contact Manusa now and our team of professionals will help you throughout the process of design, manufacture, installation and maintenance of the product.
