SAT / Curved and circular sliding

Curved & Circular Automatic Sliding Doors

SAT curved sliding systems move door leaves along a curved track rather than rotating wings around a central axis. Arc and segmented-curved entrances are developed around the façade geometry; the SAT EI-125C identifies the full circular automatic sliding configuration. Radius, clear passage and leaf parking positions are coordinated for the selected arrangement.

Configuration selection

Distinguish the entrance geometry

Curved / Arc Sliding

A curved-track sliding entrance arranged along part of a circular frontage. The arc, moving leaves and parking zones are defined by the project layout.

SAT EI-125C · Full Circular Sliding

The full circular automatic sliding configuration uses curved leaves travelling along a circular track arrangement. It is a sliding system, not a revolving door with rotating wings.

Model designation and available configurations must match the technical documents supplied for the selected system. A circular enclosure alone does not establish the movement type.

Design approach

Shape the entrance around the architecture

The radius, position of the opening and movement of visitors are considered together. A curved sliding layout may sit within a rounded frontage or become the focal point of an otherwise straight elevation; the final arrangement depends on the measured opening and project drawings.

A purposeful arc

Leaf travel and parking positions are planned around the available curve so that the passage feels natural from both sides of the entrance.

Clarity through glass

Glazing, profiles and finishes can be coordinated with adjacent materials to give the entrance a coherent architectural line.

Comfortable movement

Approach direction, expected traffic and clear passage influence the opening arrangement and the location of sensing devices.

Considered integration

Operating modes, access interfaces and service access are reviewed as part of the surrounding building design.

Project planning

Information that defines the curve

  • Architectural drawings, measured radius and overall opening
  • Required clear passage and anticipated pedestrian flow
  • Leaf movement, parking positions and structural support
  • Glazing, profiles, finish and relation to the façade
  • Safety sensing, access needs and maintenance access

Dimensions, performance and technical options are confirmed for the selected model and approved project configuration.
