It is important that all installations of automatic doors have any risks designed out or any residual risks reduced to a safe level. So, we installed BEA Flatscan on door safety sensors installed to both sides of the door to reduce the risk of the door opening or closing onto a person within the sweep area of the door.

Also, on some of the external doors, barriers were installed to direct the flow of traffic and eliminate the risk of a person walking into an opening door. On completion, the installation is subject to a risk Assessment Checklist as part of compliance to EN16005 and BS7036.
