Rundum Sliding Doors Used at BELFIELD HOUSE BUXTON
Belfield House is a new base for a company of funeral directors in Buxton, which required the maximum use of space for easy vehicle access within a relatively restricted site.
Two 8m-spanning Rundum Original side sliding doors allow vehicles to access the building via the rear yard, driven in the garage forwards (i.e. no need for reversing) and out to the main street when required with ease.
High quality design by Evans Vettori and excellent build standard resulted in Belfield House making the shortlist of the East Midlands RIBA Regional Awards 2020.
Within the building’s zinc façade is one of the two Rundum Original ‘round the corner’ side sliding doors, with a matching door to the rear.
Both doors hand-crafted in Germany from high strength extruded aluminium with a RAL 7016 Anthracite Grey finish to complement the colours of the building envelope.
Internally, each door slides along a wall-mounted internal track following the side of the building, neatly accommodating the doors when they are open, so the garage space is maximised for pedestrian access, storage and utilities.
Rundum Meir - Round-House Garage Surrey
Stunning round-house garage built as part of a project to renovate and extend a Grade II listed property.
The garage design sought to replicate a traditional coach house in order to fit with the Surrey vernacular.
By adopting a curved shape to the garage, which effectively created a roundhouse, the architect created a building with reduced visual impacts as the removal of the corners narrows the building’s appearance.
Curved, solid oak Rundum Original doors were specified – top hung and automated.
The two semi-circles or curved openings at each end of the garage span 10m, totalling 20 metres of garage doors, divided into four automated bi-parting 5m doors.
A particular challenge was ensuring that the doors look a continuous part of the external cladding.
Aesthetics were of paramount importance as the large private family home was originally designed and built by eminent exponent of the vernacular tradition and Arts & Crafts in architecture, Harold Falkner.
