AirDoor is a standalone, tailor-made solution that integrates seamlessly around most commercial doorways.
It’s a sensor‑controlled, intelligent airflow system that actively responds to changing conditions at the entrance.
By controlling air movement at the entrance, AirDoor limits unwanted outside air entering and helps maintain stable internal conditions.
By creating a controlled air barrier at retail entrances, AirDoor limits wind, rain and cold draughts entering the store, helping maintain stable internal conditions and a more comfortable shopping environment despite changing outdoor weather.
By controlling airflow at retail entrances, AirDoor reduces energy waste and heating demand, helping existing building systems operate more efficiently while delivering lower energy and operating costs and using significantly less energy than traditional overdoor heaters.
AirDoor enables an energy‑efficient open‑door approach by removing inefficient overdoor heaters and the need to keep doors closed, creating comfortable, welcoming entrances that increase usable retail space and support footfall and increased dwell times.

Our flagship, high-performance entrance solution
AirDoor integrates seamlessly around most commercial openings, creating an invisible, active air barrier that keeps entrances open and welcoming while reducing infiltration and energy loss.
Our solution for entrances with overhead space constraints
AirDoor Lite creates the same active air barrier as AirDoor, but in a pillar design, ideal for buildings where architectural constraints limit the use of an overhead crossbeam.
Our solution for temperature-controlled spaces
AirDoor Curve is specifically designed for adjoining indoor spaces that need different temperatures, where its unique twisted pillars keep hot and cold zones separate.

AirDoor minimises the loss of heated or conditioned air through frequently open doors. By reducing energy waste and lowering heating demand, it helps retailers cut operating costs while maintaining consistent indoor temperatures.
Yes. AirDoor reduces cold draughts and temperature fluctuations at entrances. This creates a more comfortable and inviting environment, encouraging customers to stay longer and improving the shopping experience.
AirDoors active air barrier uses sensors, a smart control strategy and variable speed fans to reduce the ingress of cold air, dust and pollutants through open entrances. This helps maintain cleaner indoor air, protects products and supports a more controlled and comfortable in-store environment.
No. AirDoor is designed to fit seamlessly around retail entrances, maintaining completely open access. It creates an invisible air barrier, allowing customers to move freely in and out of the store without physical obstruction. In fact, AirDoor negates the need for draught lobbies and can work with almost any type of entrance door.
With low running costs and no heating element, AirDoor reduces outside air infiltration whilst delivering substantial long-term savings.
