Security and Adaptability for the Paris Metro

for RATP

The Fritsch-Durisotti studio has designed an innovative closing system for the entrances of the Paris metro. The pivoting flap grilles adapt to all entrance widths, ensuring automatic and secure closure. This system, now familiar in the Parisian landscape, is the result of regular collaboration with RATP, also including roller grilles, surveillance cameras, and passenger information systems.

"The automatic closing doors project for metro access is, among the projects I have led, a flagship project for our travelers and our agents. The proposed technical solutions, the listening, the exchanges, have resulted in a final product with a unique design on the network, which remains and will continue to be visible to my grandchildren. When I take the metro, I can only remember what we have accomplished together."
