HINTS&TIPS • 11 A STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE TO USING DOORSENSE 1 2 First, make sure the door you’re intending to fit DoorSense to is opening and closing correctly. Check for any damage to the door and remove potential obstructions that could stop it from working as it should. 3 Next, close the fire door. Place the fitting template provided against the door on the side that shuts against the door frame. Ensure the fitting template matches your view of the door. Mark the position for the holes to fit DoorSense through the fitting template, then remove the template. 4 Using two of the four screws supplied, fix DoorSense to the door, using the two slots in the case. This will allow DoorSense to move up and down slightly for final positioning. 5 The correct position for DoorSense should allow the door to swing freely with the stopper fully retracted and then, when the foot pedal is fully depressed, the stopper will be in close proximity to the floor. This allows the floor plate to hold the plunger until it is released. LOCKSMITHJOURNAL.CO.UK | JUL/AUG 2017 Sponsored by SMP Security Solutions
