Maintaining and Servicing your Automatic Doors

Are you aware of the reasons for Maintaining and Serving your Automatic Doors?

  • The Failsafe in your door needs to be regularly checked to make sure that is working. Your failsafe allows the doors to open in case of power failure or fire alarm if your failsafe is not working than the doors will not open.
  • Batteries need to be checked to make sure the electric locking doors will remain locked or relock in case of a power failure after hours
  • Emergency Buttons need to be checked that the Button works and is accessible in case of emergency.
  • Safety Eyes are located in the doorframe and can be damaged quite easily. They need to be checked that they are working. Safety PE Eyes prevent the doors from closing and jamming on people.

If Automatic doors are not regularly Serviced they may become Unsafe for Pedestrians and Small problem can become Big problems if not caught in time.
