Making doors smarter: How can Artificial Intelligence improve entrance design?

As the demand for adaptable and secure entry points grows, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionising building design by empowering security entrances with advanced, adaptive capabilities. Traditional security measures often fall short, but AI-driven systems use real-time data analysis to optimise efficiency and prevent unauthorised access. By dynamically adjusting to occupancy patterns and environmental conditions, these intelligent systems enhance both security and energy efficiency, meeting the complex needs of modern architecture.

"Making doors smarter: How can Artificial Intelligence improve entrance design?" dives into the rapidly evolving role of artificial intelligence in reimagining building entrances across various sectors. This paper takes a look at the development of smart doors, showcasing the practical advantages and future potential of AI-driven systems. With these insights, architects and specifiers can design entrances that are not only secure and efficient but also sustainable—perfectly attuned to the demands of today’s architectural landscape.

ASSA ABLOY Entrance System’s ecoLOGIC system exemplifies the potential of AI-enhanced door technologies in revolutionising energy efficiency and user safety for modern buildings. Designed for automatic doors, ecoLOGIC dynamically adjusts door speed and hold-open times based on factors like weather conditions and foot traffic, striking an optimal balance between energy savings and convenience.
