TORMAX Upgrades Access to Nottingham University Sports Village (May 2025)
___________________________________________________________________________
Working directly with Nottingham University, TORMAX recently completed a new automatic entrance into the David Ross Sports Village. This popular facility experiences high levels of pedestrian traffic so TORMAX recommended their robust, technologically advanced iMotion 2202.A door drives to automate the two sets of bi-parting sliding glass doors.
Offering a complete package from door design, manufacture and installation, TORMAX also has an in-house team of qualified service engineers covering the UK. With a Planned Maintenance Contract in place, the new Sports Village entrance will benefit from timely servicing throughout the year, minimising unscheduled downtime.
“TORMAX iMotion drives set the industry standard for longevity,” confirms TORMAX MD, Simon Roberts. “Even a busy entrance such as this, with appropriate servicing, the doors can deliver reliable performance for up to 25 years or more.
“A comprehensive service call-out can quickly pick up any potential problems, avoiding long-term damage to the system whilst also providing timely maintenance to maximise the performance of key mechanisms.”
Developed with the support of David Ross, Carphone Warehouse founder, the £40m Sports Village opened in 2016 and offers inspirational and accessible sports provision to all. Located under the one roof on the University Park campus, the facility includes one of the largest sports halls in the country, four all-glass squash courts, dedicated archery, fencing and table tennis amenities, martial arts dojo, high performance zones and a sports injury clinic.
Experts in automatic door systems, TORMAX offers tailored solutions for almost any location, including sliding, folding, and revolving doors. Central to their installations is the highly reliable iMotion motor, engineered without common wear-and-tear components like gears and brushes—minimizing maintenance and significantly extending operational life.
