Fabricated with .125" thick rigid aluminum construction, each component of the Crane 1000 Series is carefully cut and fitted by experienced iron workers and craftsmen. All exposed surfaces are mechanically cleaned and finished with one of several options: clear anodized, dark bronze, custom anodized, or painted. Another benefit of this series is the expedited production lead-time for jobs with a fast-tracked completion date.

Managed by a 100:1 precision-geared manual speed control, the 1000 Series comes in three sizes: an 8' outside diameter, a 7' inside diameter, as well as a 6'6" inside diameter. The 7/16" clear or tinted glass enclosure can be specified from 7'-9' feet in height. Standard push bars are available as a 1/2" by 1-1/2" rectangular bar or 1" diameter round bar. All push bars are created in the same material and finish as the door for seamless aesthetic appeal. Optional ceiling lights, consisting of a translucent lens and snap-in trim ring that matches the door's finish, can be flush-mounted in non-glass ceilings.

For safety and security, Crane's patented Bookfold Collapse Lock provides emergency egress, however will not release during excessive winds or stack conditions. The pressure to engage the bookfold mechanism is adjustable to meet local conditions. The bookfold mechanism features machined chill-cast bronze discs and hangers finished to match the door.

In addition to the Crane 1000 Series, Crane Revolving Doors provides a complete revolving door portfolio including 2000 Series semi-custom doors, 3000 Series fully custom doors, 4000 Series all-glass doors. Crane also offers security revolving doors, large diameter revolving doors and revolving door rehab kits to meet all revolving door project needs.
