LCN LCP10001 ADA DOOR CLOSER FORCE GAUGE |
Doors present some of the most common accessibility issues. They may be too “heavy” and require too much force to open. Heavy doors are especially difficult for people with disabilities and seniors with limited upper body strength and/or skills in using their hands. They may close too quickly for some people to pass through easily. People who move slowly or use mobility devices like wheelchairs or walkers may not be able to pass through fast enough. Fortunately, these common problems can often be resolved by simply adjusting door closers. Follow these steps to make sure your doors are accessible to all. An ADA door force gauge is a specialized instrument designed to measure the force required to open a door, ensuring compliance with the Disabilities Act standards. These standards mandate that doors must be accessible to individuals with disabilities, including those who use wheelchairs or have limited strength. |
