How airport doors improve safety and efficiency

Airport doors must provide solutions to the unique challenges posed by the busiest of environments. Luckily, Hart’s specialist doors are more than up to the task: let’s take a look…

The role of specialist airport doors

It goes without saying that all parts of an airport’s infrastructure must not only enhance passenger experience but also deliver high operating efficiencies for the airport and airlines who use it.

More specifically, specialist doors are critical to maintaining airport security by securing zones from the public or intruders and controlling access key areas.

Furthermore, doors play an integral role in airport safety, providing a physical barrier from attack or reducing fire spread.

Bespoke door solutions for airport environments

Hart has designed and installed specialist doors for airport projects across the globe, including London Heathrow, Dubai and Vladivostok.

Our unique level of product specialism comes from a policy to drive airport door systems development and product testing that ensures the systems produced by Hart are reliable and work as specified.  

Thanks to this specialist approach, we have built bespoke doors and shutters that solve the challenges posed by these environments:

Efficient integration

Hart Speedor Conveyor door is designed for specialist applications such as the high-frequency conveyor belt systems found in airports, providing compartmentalisation between public areas and baggage system (BHS) mechanics.

Supplied as a built unit with easy plug and play installation, Speedor Conveyor can easily be integrated with third-party baggage handling systems.

This efficiency makes it a popular option for organisations wishing to upgrade their conveyor systems and this highly adaptable door has been installed in over 40 airports across the world.  

60 minute fire protection

We have adapted our fire shutters to offer an innovative solution for airport BHS, which need to cater for both fire and security within the system.

These shutters are designed to suit various conveyor systems, particularly those used in the busy airport BHS environment, including design assistance, interface requirements, control logic, physical status sensors and control inputs and outputs.

Furthermore, Hart is the only company in UK to offer either BS or UL compliance.
