Barclaycard Arena

A concept that perfectly combines fire protection, smoke protection, burglary protection, escape route security, and automatic air supply. The arena in Hamburg is one of the most modern multi-purpose halls in Europe and can accommodate almost 16,000 spectators. The hall's multifunctionality provides visitors with a wide range of entertainment options on 3,760 square meters of floor space and 33 meters of height, from opera to ice shows, rock to pop, classical music to TV shows, handball to ice hockey.

The infrastructure requirements are as high-caliber as the events themselves. What was needed was a security concept that would control visitor flows, secure escape routes and automatic air supply, provide multiple protective functions such as fire, smoke, and burglary protection for people and materials, and ensure all logistical processes. Doors and gates were required that would meet all technical requirements and fit into the overall architectural design. A perfectly coordinated door and gate system from Teckentrup was implemented, which fully complies with the required fire protection regulations and meets the complex requirements in a multifunctional manner. From clarification on the construction site to production and installation, Teckentrup was able to demonstrate its high level of flexibility and delivered more than 420 special doors and gates. It was precisely the special solutions required that gave the Teckentrup team the edge. This also applies to doors that are not intended for public use. Fire-retardant emergency exit doors (T30-1 and T30-2), for example, separate the electrical shafts (four per floor) from the interior and ensure fire protection on both sides.
