Approved document M:2004 states that adequate provision is made to enable all people not only to gain access to a building but also to use the building and it facilities. The Dor-O-Matic WC unit is a direct response to this requirement. We have developed an integrated system which allows the door of a disabled toilet facility to be fully automated. All the components are supplied within the package which can be applied to a newly constructed doorset or to an existing installation.
The door is opened, closed, locked and unlocked using the operating pads outside and inside the facility. The indicator LED’s show the same condition on both pads, working as a set of traffic lights. A sensor detects the presence of someone in the WC. The door will close but not lock if no presence is detected. If a presence is detected the door will stay open until the internal pad is pressed to close and lock the door.
