COMET
International's Comet design allows maximum use of glass to harmonize with modern architecture. Our all glass revolving door is sleek at any entrance.
Design
With our all-glass design, the Comet revolving door design fits seamlessly into any glass storefront. For strength purposes we use 1⁄2” tempered glass in the wings.
Unique Characteristics: Removal of the inside and outside stiles on the wing accentuate the smooth, clean look of the revolving door. Our Comet design can also be installed with either the bottom rail exposed or hidden to accommodate the desired aesthetic look for your architectural design.

Benefits
Significant cost saving by minimizing A/C and heat losses: revolving doors are the most efficient method for controlling a building’s stack pressure while reducing heating and cooling costs. Compared to swing doors, revolving doors reduce over 500% of unwanted air from infiltrating the inside of the building.
