Project Overview
We are proud to have the prestigious Castleknock hotel as a valued client and our service and maintenance team work with their facilities team to ensure the ongoing smooth operation of the building for all users, including staff and guests of the hotel. Recently there was a requirement to automate and extend an existing corridor door from a standard double door to a brand new double doorset with an extended active leaf. This door was traditionally manual but in order to provide ease of access to the corporate meeting rooms area of the hotel we provided a fully integrated doorset, hardware and automation solution with sensor activation on both sides. This also provides a “covid compliant”, safe entry and egress for users of the corporate suites with contactless activation. The 60 minute doorset was manufactured specifically for this project, bespoke by our manufacturing company Elite Doors, in a paint grade finish to blend in with the other existing doorsets in the hotel with integrated vision panels on each leaf plus integrated ironmongery and automation, all pre-prepared in the factory for on-site installation by our BM Trada accredited carpenters.

Based on the needs of the facility we elected to use our Quantum speed gate which is the fastest open and close speed gate on the market capable of facilitating up to 55 persons passing per minute. This makes it the ideal solution for sites with high visitor flow rate.
Kinsale Community Hospital
For this healthcare project, Todd Architects designed an extension to an existing facility, Kinsale Community Hospital, to include internal alteration and refurbishment works, as part of the HSE Cork Community Hospital Bundle. The project was designed to provide a ‘Step Down’ facility to move patients from the main hospital into a community facility closer to home to continue their care.
Concealed door & ironmongery solution for refurbished historical building
The €3.7million project involved the refurbishment of the historical James O’Neill building in Church Square, originally an Old Mill, which dates back to the late 19th Century. The library has been carefully and beautifully designed to sit inside the original shell of the Old Mill building, creating a modern, bright space whilst still maintaining the original charm of the Stone building.
