Boon Edam, the market leader in
innovative and quality entry solutions, has announced its latest
partnership with The National BIM Library.
The fastest
growing Building Information Modelling (BIM) library in the UK will
showcase the entry experts’ two latest product releases; the Swinglane 900 Wide and the Speedlane 900 Wide.
Following the UK government’s decision to make the use of BIM
mandatory on all public-sector projects, BIM has altered the way in
which buildings, infrastructure and utilities are planned, designed and
managed. Boon Edam, the first manufacturer of revolving doors to offer
BIM objects, has ensured its product range is readily available to
support architects and contractors throughout their BIM projects. The
NBS National BIM Library now hosts 17 of its products, available in both
Revit and IFC.
The Swinglane 900, is a fail-safe security barrier composed of slim,
stainless cabinets, a glass swinging door wing and an advanced sensor
system. The long detection lane creates accurate tailgating detection
and high capacity throughput of up to 30 people per minute. This product
is designed to reduce the pressure on staff to track visitors, by
accurately recognising that only authorised visitors can enter certain
sections of the building. The Swinglane 900 allows for certain bespoke
customisations to be made for clients requiring a unique style and
finish.
Like all Boon Edam secured entry solutions, the Speedlane 900 can be
easily integrated with virtually any access control system. A high
capacity throughput of 30 people per minute can be achieved due to the
design of the quick sliding motion of the door wings. With multiple door
wing heights available, it has been specifically created to adapt to
the requirements of a security entrance system. The glass construction
of the door wings and the rounded cabinet design ensures a comfortable,
non-intrusive user experience.
The Swinglane 900 Wide and the Speedlane 900 Wide are both compliant
with DDA legislation; with both products providing suitable entrance
solutions when catering for disabled access lanes. The width of the
disabled access lanes can be adapted from the standard 500mm to 900mm,
depending on the requirements of the building. This is achieved through
the design of the two door wings, ensuring that the level of security is
not compromised.
Using its dedicated, internal Specification Managers and CAD
technicians, Boon Edam can support its customers to ensure the correct
products are specified at design stage helping to give greater clarity
for all stakeholders across the project lifecycle.
