Swing doors

Swinging Doors

Swinging doors are often referred to as swing doors or saloon doors due to their special function. Swinging doors can be opened in both directions, swinging back and forth without a stop. After opening, the swinging door swings back to the closed position, usually held by springs. This means that the swinging door does not need to be manually closed, as it automatically swings back.

The advantage of swinging doors is that they can be pushed open with the shoulder, knee, or foot. They are suitable for areas where you don't have a free hand. Therefore, swinging doors are commonly used in the gastronomy industry, where the kitchen and restaurant areas are separated by swinging doors. They can also be advantageous in a home dining room. Matching fittings in various design options ensure that the swinging door seamlessly blends into any room design.

Applications of Swinging Doors

Swinging doors are versatile room dividers that can be opened in both directions. Their unique frame makes them perfect for various applications. In the gastronomy industry, swinging doors are particularly popular as they facilitate service in restaurants and bars and ensure smooth traffic flow. Hotels use them to stylishly separate different areas such as the lobby, restaurant, and wellness area. In medical practices, swinging doors help to separate waiting rooms and treatment rooms while allowing for quick access. With various design options for fittings, swinging doors can be customized to fit any room design. Other applications include offices, shopping centers, and even residential areas, where swinging doors serve as stylish and practical solutions for space division.

Swinging Shower Doors

Swinging glass shower doors are commonly used in residential bathrooms. They are also frequently found in the bathroom areas of hotels. In the often wet and humid environment, a swinging shower door is advantageous as it can close on its own. When combined with appropriate splash protection, the swinging shower door prevents water from overflowing the bathroom.

Pendulum Doors for Kitchens

Pendulum doors in the kitchen are particularly practical. Even without a free hand, you still have the option to open the door by pushing against it with your leg or arm. Thanks to the self-closing mechanism, the door closes behind you. In the gastronomy industry, swinging doors are commonly used in kitchen areas. The door closes behind the staff, preventing unauthorized access.
