Boon Edam’s BoonAssist TQ is a manual revolving door that combines power assistance, speed control and positioning.

Boon Edam Inc. has launched BoonAssist TQ, a manual revolving door that combines three features:

Push and Go power assistance—When a user pushes, a low-energy motor activates and, borrowing the user’s kinetic energy, rotates the door.
Speed control—When a door wing is pushed with excessive force, a brake engages to ensure rotation speed remains within industry standards for safe passage.
Positioning—After a user exits, the door continues to rotate to “home position”, making it easier for the next user and reducing air infiltration.

The door is designed to serve a wide variety of applications because of its increased sizes—up to 10-foot diameter and 10-foot ceiling height.
