Key Considerations for Sign-Off & Compliance

To ensure successful installation and compliance with current regulations, we include a robust checklist prior to handover:

Safety Sensors – Presence and motion sensors to prevent entrapment
Pocket Protection Screens – For sliding doors, to avoid shearing hazards when doors retract into pockets
Barrier Requirements – Ensuring external doors include suitable barriers to prevent impact from wind or pedestrian traffic
Activation Devices – Touchless sensors, push pads, key fobs or access control integration
Failsafe & Emergency Settings – Doors revert to manual or open state during power failure
Testing & Certification – Full commissioning and testing in line with manufacturer guidelines and safety standards
Maintenance Access – Discreet housing of operators for ease of service
Visual Indicators – Safety decals or manifestation markings where required
