First Entry / Last Exit Procedure (If Fitted)
The purpose of this system is to allow an opening of the door when the Program Switch is in the OFF position and the sensors are not operable.
There will be a GREEN BUTTON near the door on the inside of the building.
Remote Programme Switch
For installations where access to the Operator Rocker Switches is not convenient or safe, a Remote Programme Switch may be installed.
To EXIT the building:
- Turn the program switch to the OFF position and let the door close (stand away from the door to ensure the sensor does not detect you).
- Set the building alarm (if you have one).
- Operate the GREEN BUTTON to open the door.
- Exit and allow the door to close (stand away from the door to ensure the sensor does not detect you), then lock the door in the center with the key when closed.
Note: There will be a KEY SWITCH or other access control on the outside of the building.
To ENTER the building:
- Unlock the door before using the KEY SWITCH.
- Operate the key switch on the outside of the building; this will open the door.
- Enter the building (stand away from the door to ensure the sensor does not detect you); the door will then close behind you.
- Turn off the building alarm (if you have one).
- Put the program switch into the required position, or leave it in the OFF position.
- If required to admit staff members before opening hours, simply press the GREEN BUTTON. The door will open then re-close.
Program Switch Settings
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| OFF / Locked | Door Closed and locked with integral lock, will only respond to a first entry - last exit switch - if fitted. |
| AUTOMATIC | Normal daytime operation. Low Energy Unit – the door can be used manually, or automatically using the operating devices that have been installed (e.g., push pads). |
| PERMANENTLY OPEN | Door remains fully open. If the door was closed when this is selected, the door will open and remain open. |
In the event of power failure
- The door will normally remain closed and can be operated manually.
- Alternatively, the door may be fitted with an electric locking system.
There are two basic types of lock operation:
- Fail safe: Door lock will release allowing manual operation.
- Fail secure: Door will remain locked and can be released using the door latch.
Rocker Switch Settings
| Switch Position | Mode | Function |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | OFF | Turns the operator 'OFF'. Door Closed and locked with integral lock, will only respond to a first entry - last exit switch - if fitted. |
| I | AUTOMATIC | Sets the operator to 'AUTOMATIC' mode. Normal daytime operation. Low Energy Unit – the door can be used manually, or automatically using the operating devices that have been installed (e.g., push pads). |
| II | PERMANENTLY OPEN | Sets the operator to 'PERMANENTLY OPEN' mode. Door remains fully open. If the door was closed when this is selected, the door will open and remain open. |
Daily Checks - Facility Operator
A safety check should be performed daily by the facility operator on each automatic door.
Activation
Walk toward the door at a normal pace. The door should start opening before you reach a minimum of 1000mm from the door. If the door is an escape route, a minimum of 1500mm applies in the direction of escape. If the door opens toward you, the measurements are taken from the front edge of the door in the fully open position. Repeat for the other side if the door has two-way operation.
Safety Note: In order to test the safety sensors, we recommend using an approved test object measuring 200mm x 300mm x 700mm high to test the door safety as detailed in EN16005.
Safety Sensors
- During the Closing Cycle: Activate the door and place the test object within the protected sweep area of the door. The door should begin to close. The test object should be detected without contact and the door should reopen.
- During the Opening Cycle: With the door closed, place the test object within the protected sweep area of the door. Activate the door. The test object should be detected without contact and the door should remain closed or stop.
Low Energy Swing Doors
- Safety devices as described above may not be fitted but are optional.
- Usually have manual activation devices.
- Travel at lower speeds with lower force.
- In the opening and closing direction will stop when obstructed and continue after the obstruction is removed.
General Observations
- Check there are no hazards due to crushing, shearing, impact, and drawing-in.
- Check that the opening and closing speed are not likely to increase the risk of impact.
- Check that finger guards are secure and in good repair.
- Check the door area does not present tripping or slipping hazards.
- Check all doors have correct warning and information signs displayed.
- Check the position and security of barriers.
- Check operation of any manual or remote activation.
- Check for distractions and obstructions in the vicinity of the doors.
Mechanical Checks
- With the door on ‘Hold Open’ setting, grasp the front edge of the door and attempt to move it horizontally and vertically. There should be limited movement in the door pivots.
- Check all door panels for broken/cracked glass.
- Check all equipment and cabling is securely fixed.
If you have questions about any of the above items, please contact dormakaba Service. Safety devices for all doors should be checked by an ADSA qualified technician at least once a year.
Regular Inspection and Maintenance
To be undertaken by a qualified technician.
The following list describes what has to be done during the maintenance of dormakaba door systems. Always consider the mounting and operation instructions during maintenance.
Please observe the requirements for fire doors, emergency exits and escape routes during inspection, if applicable. The current state of technology has to be taken into consideration when assessing the door system with regard to safety-related questions.
Note down any safety-relevant error/deficit in the log book and on the performance sheet. The inspector must note down the scope, results and date of the inspections and the facility operator has to keep these documents for at least one year.
