Swing Operator
The operation of swing doors can be either fully automatic, activated by motion sensors, low energy activated by touch pads, key fob transmitters or access control or a mixture of these depending on the requirements of the end user.
Fully automatic doors are most commonly found in retail situations; the doors open as they are approached from either side by pedestrians. Where the doors are sent a signal to open automatically, usually by motion sensors, additional safety measures must be taken to ensure the safety of the pedestrians using the doors.
Low energy installations allow doors to continue to be used in the normal way, as manual doors, and then open automatically when an activation command is sent by the pedestrian. This is usually achieved by touching a pad sited near the doors or can be by pressing a key fob or an access control device such as a keypad. This is particularly suitable for disabled access situations.
Both fully automatic and low energy installations are fully compliant with the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act.
