Maintenance/Service
Regular inspections should be made according to local and/or national regulations and product
documentation by an ASSA ABLOY-trained and qualified technician. This is especially
important when the installation concerns a fire-approved door or a door with an emergency
opening function. Refer to ASSA ABLOY Pro-Active Care option services to learn more
about service possibilities!
Daily Safety Check
Perform the following safety checks daily on each automatic sliding door to ensure your
customers' safety and your own protection. Perform these tests while traffic is restricted
from all detection and sensing zones. (All figures and diagrams are for purposes of
illustration only)

1.
Check electronic sensor by walking toward the center
of the door opening from several different angles at a
moderate speed. The door should start opening when
you are about four feet from the door, should slide
open smoothly, and stop without impact. Repeat on
other side of opening. Move slowly through the door
opening (6 inches per second). The door should
remain open. (See Figures 1 and 2)
NOTE: If your door is set up for one -way traffic, the
sensor on the side not intended for approach should be
active until the door is within 6 inches of fully closed.
The sensor should re-open the closing door if a person
is detected a minimum of 24 inches from the door.
2.
Step out of the sensor zone. After a brief time delay (at
least 1 1/2 seconds) the door should slide closed
smoothly and should close fully without impact. Doors
should be adjusted so they do not close faster than 1
foot per second.
3.
Observe traffic routing to the door. Plan traffic routing
so persons will approach the door straight on and not
from an angle.
4.
Walk parallel to the door face and towards the center of
the door opening to check that the detection pattern is
at least as wide as the door opening. This test should
be performed within approximately 12 inches from the
door face. Repeat this test in both directions.
5.
Check the threshold area safety zone. Activate the
door to the full open position. Stand motionless and
crouch in several locations in and around the door
travel area for at least 10 seconds. The door should not
close. (See Figure 2)
