KONE AMD Doors and Entrances Architectural design Information
KONE AMD Doors and Entrances Door configurations The design of elevator doors and their surroundings is challenging: Smooth operation of the doors is important in the flow of passenger traffic. Fast, reliable and quiet doors minimize waiting time and improve convenience. KONE AMD-1 Two panel centre opening AMD-1 door configuration is the most traffic-efficient, allowing exit and entry even before the doors are fully open. The entrances must provide the passengers with safe, easy and convenient access to the elevators and landing fixtures. Elevator, lobby, and entrance design has to meet both aesthetical and functional requirements. The entrances form the structural interface between the building and the elevator, and channel the passengers between the landings and the elevator cars. KONE AMD-2 AMD-2 is a two panel side opening door. This configuration saves space and shaft width but is not as efficient operationally as centre opening door. The KONE AMD doors are designed and engineered to meet these demands, combining safety, performance, durability and attractive styling. For large cars or special applications four and six panel centre opening types are available Right: Centre opening AMD1 door with Frame entrance, plaster walls, KONE Sigma landing fixtures.
Narrow Frame Entrance The 50 mm wide Narrow Frame reduces the visual impact of the landing entrance, helping to blend it with the lobby design. The entrance jambs can be finished either in the wall finish or in the door panel material. The flush or surface mounted landing fixtures are fixed to the wall.
