Daily checks -
facility operator
A safety check should be performed daily by the facility
operator on each automatic door.
Activation
Walk toward the door at a normal pace. The door
should start opening before you reach a minimum of
mm from the door. If the door is an escape route,
a minimum of mm applies in the direction of
escape. If the door opens toward you, the
measurements are taken from the front edge of the
door in the fully open position. Repeat for the other side
if the door has two-way operation.
Safety Note: In order to test the safety sensors we
recommend using an approved test object measuring
mm x mm x mm high to test the door safety
as detailed in BS EN.
During the Closing Cycle
Activate the door and place the test object within the
protected sweep area of the door. The door should
begin to close. The test object should be detected
without contact and the door should reopen.
During the Opening Cycle
With the door closed, place the test object within the
protected sweep area of the door. Activate the door.
The test object should be detected without contact
and the door should remain closed or stop.
