As part of an accessibility upgrade at the Royal Opera House in London, four new disabled access bathrooms required automation to ensure easy entry for all users. However, space constraints in the corridors and bathroom interiors made conventional door installations impractical. Entec provided a tailored solution—designing and installing automatic sliding doors to create fully compliant and accessible entrances.
Project Overview
The Royal Opera House required a bathroom access solution that met accessibility standards while overcoming space limitations. Entec installed automatic sliding door systems that ensured smooth, hands-free operation and provided easy access for all staff and guests.
Challenge
The bathrooms were economically sized, and situated in narrow corridors—leaving insufficient space to have doors opening outwards into the corridor or inwards back into the bathroom.
Solution
Entec installed automatic sliding, fully compliant accessible entrances to the bathrooms—mitigating the space constraints and ensuring bathroom accessibility for all staff and guests.
“Helpful, Reliable, Thorough. From survey to installation Entec have been extremely organised and helpful. We will definitely be using them again.”
