Match the protection to the doors.
Forge supplies and installs mechanical safety edges and infrared multi-beam detection equipment where suitable. These systems detect contact or an obstruction and signal the door system to respond.
A light curtain creates a detection field across the entrance. AVIRE’s light-curtain range illustrates available equipment; the appropriate choice depends on the lift.
Investigate the symptom before replacing a component.
Doors that repeatedly reopen or behave inconsistently may need investigation of the detection equipment and the wider door system. A new edge is not a cure for every door fault.
We consider mounting, wiring, the controller interface and the condition of the mechanism before defining replacement work.
Check operation after the work.
The agreed installation includes appropriate functional checks and a record of the work. Report any continuing abnormal behaviour so it can be investigated.
Do not rely on door sensors as a reason to hold doors with your body or introduce objects to test them. Contact us about recurring door problems through our repair service.
