TORMAX iMotion Technology
Taking swing and sliding door automation to new levels, TORMAX sustainable iMotion technology guarantees optimum operational performance and energy efficiency by combining a high torque synchronous motor with sophisticated sensors and a ground-breaking control system that utilises LIN bus technology.
Reliable and Flexible
Designed for reliability and fully compliant with RoHS standards, the iMotion range of automatic door drives is tested well beyond current industry requirements. The high powered synchronous motors have none of the parts which usually wear out, such as gears and brushes, delivering near-indefinite life-expectancy. Further minimising maintenance, a health and safety self-monitoring system automatically makes necessary alterations in performance or signals an alert. Modular by design, expanding an iMotion door system is straightforward and cost-effective as requirements changed.
Sustainable
A sustainable option, iMotion automatic door operators are almost entirely manufactured using recyclable materials. In addition, energy consumption and heat loss from a building is minimised with iMotion technology allowing doors to be set for ‘reduced opening’ but automatically adapting if pedestrian traffic builds up from both directions. To accommodate site specific requirements individual adjustments can still be made via a user-friendly control panel. Performance is guaranteed thanks to self-monitoring torque control which adapts door operation to take account of factors such as high winds or a build-up of dirt, which may otherwise cause the door to slow down.
Complete Solution
iMotion technology is the result of dedicated research and development by the TORMAX head office team in Switzerland and is one of the most advanced solutions available in the marketplace today. TORMAX offer a full range of automatic door entrance systems that benefit from iMotion technology including sliding, curved and angular sliding doors as well as swing doors that are powered by discrete operators installed under the floor.

TORMAX Automatic Access Works Swimmingly (April 2025)
TORMAX Automatic Access Works Swimmingly (April 2025)
___________________________________________________________________________
Spennymoor Leisure Centre, County Durham, has recently undergone a significant refurbishment. As part of that, TORMAX worked with NE&C Windows & Doors Ltd to automate two sets of single sliding doors. Visitors are welcomed through the first automatic door directly into the newly revamped swimming pool reception, before going through the second sliding door into the pool area itself.
Offering unsurpassed reliability, the TORMAX iMotion 2202.A door drive is ideal for these busy access points that experience a wide range of visitors, including young families, the elderly and less-able, offering easily adapted control of hold-open times and opening speeds to allow for safe and easy passage for all pedestrians.
“We were delighted to be invited to work with NE&C on this important project”, said Simon Roberts, MD for TORMAX. “Our comprehensive range of advance door drives ensures a solution for almost any environment. Although not required in this instance, we can offer swing and sliding door operators that are IP65-rated and are capable of withstanding continuous immersion and splash water.”
A worldwide company, TORMAX has been delivering technologically advanced door automation for nearly 75 years. The entire iMotion range of in-house designed door drives feature none of the usual parts that wear out, such as gears and brushes, ensuring minimal ongoing maintenance requirements as well as a greatly extended life expectancy.
The TORMAX operators are also certified for rescue and escape routes
Tormax Glass Entrance Lobby Creates Automatic Entrance to Oxford Chapel (March 2025)
Glass Entrance Lobby Creates Automatic Entrance to Oxford Chapel (March 2025)
___________________________________________________________________________
Working with commercial glazing specialists IQ Projects, TORMAX has delivered discrete and reliable automation to a new draught lobby installed inside the main entrance to the 13th century chapel at Merton College, Oxford.
Successfully reducing heat loss from the building whilst improving the internal ambient temperature, the elegant glass lobby features two sets of automatic sliding doors. Working in tandem, the doors are powered by in-house designed TORMAX iMotion 2202.A operators.
Helping maintain the heritage aesthetics, the iMotion 2202.A has an installation height of just 100mm which, along with a slender guide track, makes it suitably unobtrusive. Reliable AC motor technology combines with a state-of-the-art microprocessor control system to deliver near-silent movement quality, for an appropriate entrance into this ancient place of worship.
An exquisite example of Gothic architecture, Merton College Chapel has stood as a place of worship at the heart of this ancient College, for over 750 years. Today the Chapel is home to a lively and diverse Christian community with a busy programme of daily services and concerts.
With sustainability a targeted priority throughout the College, it was recognised that the existing entrance doors were a source of avoidable heat-loss. Seeking a modern solution that would create a welcoming atmosphere without compromising the building’s historic charm, IQ Projects was contracted to install a thoughtfully designed glass lobby.
“We have worked with IQ Projects on a number of different installations,” comments Simon Roberts, MD for TORMAX. “This glass lobby is a truly elegant solution with the automatic sliding doors offering seamless and unhindered access for everyone.”
Reliability is a priority for any automatic entrance and the Chapel doors should only require minimal maintenance thanks to the advanced designed of the iMotion operator. Featuring a motor that has none of the working parts that easily wear out, such as gears and brushes, the iMotion life expectancy is second to none.
TORMAX UK provides high-quality automatic door solutions, including sliding, swing, and revolving doors, with expert installation, maintenance, and repair services for commercial applications.
