A dormakaba Case Study
Clapham Junction Station, Europe’s busiest rail hub with 41 million passengers a year, needed to be made fully accessible as part of a £14.5M “Access for All” refurbishment delivered by Network Rail and Osborne. dormakaba supplied automatic door solutions — ED 100 swing door operators, FFT folding space‑saving doors and ES 200 sliding door operators — to upgrade station entrances, the ticket hall and the new lift lobby to meet accessibility requirements.
dormakaba’s ED 100 units proved reliable in extreme conditions (tested to −15°C and with Wind‑Load Control compensating up to 150 N), the FFT doors completed the new ticketing facilities and toilets, and the ES 200 provided easy installation and smooth sliding operation. The dormakaba installation delivered weather‑resilient, dependable door performance and helped make Clapham Junction fully accessible for hundreds of thousands of daily users and its 41 million annual passengers.
