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 Doors Compliant with Martyn’s Law Security Requirements
TORMAX Automatic Doors Compliant with Martyn’s Law Security Requirements
(Sept 2024)
_______________________________________________________________________
In response to the forthcoming Martyn's Law, officially known as the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill, TORMAX is proud to confirm that our automatic entrance systems already comply with the new security standards. Martyn's Law, introduced in the wake of the 2017 Manchester Arena attack, mandates public venues to implement enhanced security measures to protect against terrorist threats, particularly in venues with capacities over 100 people.
The Automatic Door Suppliers Association (ADSA) has welcomed the new legislation, highlighting the importance of access control systems in improving public safety. ADSA points out that powered pedestrian doors, equipped with emergency lockdown functions, are critical in responding swiftly to potential threats. These security upgrades, recommended by Martyn’s Law, include integrating doors with smart control systems that facilitate immediate lockdown and threat detection, enhancing both security and operational efficiency.
“TORMAX has long recognized the importance of safety and security in public spaces,” confirms Simon Roberts, MD for TORMAX.
“Our automatic entrance systems are already designed with an emergency close function, providing a rapid and effective response in critical situations. Unlike systems that deactivate safety sensors during lockdowns, TORMAX solutions can be set to maintain sensor functionality, ensuring safe and secure closure without compromising public safety.”
With a range of innovative entrance systems, TORMAX stands ready to support venues in complying with Martyn’s Law, providing solutions that not only meet but exceed the required security standards. As Martyn's Law moves closer to full implementation, TORMAX is committed to helping businesses enhance their preparedness and safeguard public spaces.

Creating a welcoming and efficient new main entrance to the fantastical family attraction of Hobbledown in Surrey, TORMAX was recently contracted to install a double set of bi-parting automatic sliding doors, powered by their Swiss-engineered iMotion 2202 door drives.
Offering unparalleled reliability and smooth operation, the doors feature advanced motion sensor technology, ensuring optimal energy efficiency and safety. An intelligent control system adapts to varying traffic patterns, minimizing power consumption whilst maximising performance.
“Hobbledown is an incredibly popular local attraction with many visitors everyday” confirms Ashley Terry, at Hobbledown. “The new main automatic entrance doors help to keep foot traffic moving quickly and efficiently, especially at the start of the day when the crowds tend to arrive at once.”
Hobbledown first opened its doors in 2012, delivering a truly extraordinary family day out. Designed with a fantastical, storybook-themed environment, the attraction offers a unique blend of adventure play, interactive exhibits, and animal encounters.
Aiming to ensure everyone can enjoy Hobbledown, many attractions are accessible to the less able, along with a restaurant, toilets and dedicated parking facilities too.
The new TORMAX automatic entrance system sets the standard for a welcoming day to everyone. Visitors enter the ticket office through the outer set of sliding doors, before exiting through the second set, directly into the park. This configuration creates a spacious reception lobby area that is easily accessible for everyone, including young children, parents with children in buggies as well wheelchair users.
TORMAX is a leading provider of innovative automatic entrance systems, including revolving, sliding, swing and folding doors. With a focus on precision engineering and advanced technology, TORMAX offers reliable, energy-efficient solutions for almost any location. Their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction sets them apart in the industry.
The iMotion range of door operators successfully combines functionality with enhanced aesthetic, creating automatic access solutions that blend seamlessly with the internal and external architecture of the building.
