ADSA Code of Practice

It was ADSA who first developed an industry code of practice covering the safety aspects of automatic doors for pedestrian use. This subsequently formed the basis of BS7036: 1988, a code of practice for provision and installation of safety devices for automatic, power operated pedestrian door systems.

With advances in technology and the introduction of new safety devices, ADSA then contributed to the updated standard BS7036: 1996 covering safety at powered doors for pedestrian use. This is complemented by a comprehensive testing programme for the industry's installation and maintenance engineers who undertake operations covered by the standard. All member companies are fully committed to this program. The Association is also actively involved in the formulation of European-wide safety standards.

Insist on an ADSA Member

ADSA exists to promote the highest standards in automatic doors and to help specifiers and potential customers obtain the best solution to their needs. For peace of mind, clients and specifiers should make sure of benefiting from the Association's rigorous standards by checking that the automatic door company with which they are are dealing is an ADSA member.
