Brewood Medical Centre

Two sets of single sliding doors were installed to each entrance along with a fixed side panel, thereby creating an internal lobby area which provides improved comfort in the waiting area and superior building energy efficiency; the outer doors also being double glazed. The doors provide a clear walk through width of 1100mm which is ample to accommodate the wide range of visitors including wheel chair users, disabled persons, accompanied children and pensioners. In the event of an emergency the doors have independent battery backup power and are linked to the fire alarm system to enable easy escape. The doors have been fitted with glazed pocket screens and sensors to help ensure safety.
