At Metador, we know that sports and leisure environments demand more from every component, especially doors. That’s why we’ve engineered the Defender Sportsguard, a heavy-duty, impact-resistant steel doorset designed to stand up to the daily challenges of sports halls, gyms, and leisure centres.
Whether it's a basketball ricochet, a five-a-side collision, or everyday wear from constant foot traffic, the Defender Sportsguard is built to take the hit and designed to protect.
Tough Where It Counts
Our sports hall doors are crafted with 1.5mm galvanised steel rebound panels, the Defender Sportsguard doesn’t just survive impact, it absorbs it. These panels are specifically designed to withstand repeated contact while maintaining durability and optimal performance.
For ease of maintenance, the rebound panels can be quickly removed, allowing straightforward access to panic hardware.
Engineered for Safety
In high-energy environments, safety is everything. Our sports hall door, Defender Sportsguard, features a flush design with no protruding hardware, helping to prevent injuries and keep users safe during play. This attention to detail aligns with Sport England design guidance, giving you peace of mind that you’re meeting national safety expectations.
Flexible Configurations to Fit Any Space
Whether you’re upgrading an existing leisure centre or designing a new-build sports complex, our sports hall doors are available in a wide array of configurations:
- Single & double doorsets
- Side panels
- Over panel
- Side panels & over panels
- DDA-compliant options for accessibility
Plus, we offer customisable performance upgrades including:
- Thermal insulation as low as 1.4 W/m²K
- Acoustic ratings to help control noise in multi-use spaces
