Opening and closing forces In order to show compliance with requirements for accessibility, the force needed to open the door, measured at the leading edge, from 0 must be less than 0N (see page for further information). The size of the door, the accuracy of installation of the hardware, the presence of smoke or draught seals, the need to latch the door, the location of the door will all have a bearing on the force required to open it and as a consequence it may not be possible to provide a definitive statement as to which closers do or do not meet the opening force requirements of the regulations. For guidance purposes we have indicated in the chart opposite those closers which can in principle meet the opening force criteria for accessibility and also the closing force criteria for fire doors. Due to the principles of leverage, the door width is critical in assessing the relevant opening/closing forces. The chart indicates the minimum door leaf width that is possible to achieve the necessary opening force. The maximum leaf width may be governed by the maximum closer power in accordance with BS EN 54. Orbis Premier closers have electrophoretic finishes with arms and brackets to match.

The size of the door, the accuracy of installation of the hardware, the presence of smoke or draught seals, the need to latch the door, the location of the door will all have a bearing on the force required to open it and as a consequence it may not be possible to provide a definitive statement as to which closers do or do not meet the opening force requirements of the regulations. Materials and construction The Orbis Premier electromagnetic hold-open closers have cast aluminium mechanisms with covers, arms and brackets in steel. Orbis Premier closers have electrophoretic finishes with arms and brackets/track to match. ESS - Electrophoretic Satin Stainless (to match ) EPS - Electrophoretic Polished Stainless (to match ) ESA - Electrophoretic Silk Anodised Aluminium (to match SA7) Operating Modes Fixed strength models are site selectable for either 'hold-open' or 'swing-free' operation. Hold open angle is available from 75 up to 70 in a figure application. The 'swing-free' facility allows the door to operate as if no closer were fitted. When the power to the closer is cut, or in the event of alarm activation, the closer is reactivated and closes the door. Suitable for Fig. or Fig.66 applications. DDA applications Both operating modes of the electromagnetic door control facilitate access and are specifically recommended in the Building Regulations as a means of satisfying the opening force requirements. 27 964 Electrical requirements Operating voltage - 24v AC/DC (+0% - 5%) at 90mA max. 9 www.laidlaw.net

STANDARDS & BS EN CLASSIFICATIONS The standards compliance of Orbis Premier products falls into categories Performance testing to the latest European standards, including CE marking where this is appropriate Suitability for fire & smoke doors with products successfully included on timber and steel door fire tests Compliance with the requirements of Approved Document M of The Building Regulations and BS 800, and thereby considered suitable for use in DDA applications BS EN Standards are the benchmark for product performance in several major product areas within architectural hardware. Each standard prescribes a set of test procedures for products which are selected at random from stock production items. The test data and product evaluation produces a multi digit classification code which runs in parallel across each product area (or as close as practically possible). The relevant BS EN standards are summarised opposite. Further details of these BS EN standards are available from The Association of Builders Hardware Manufacturers at www.abhm.org.uk CE Marking is applicable only to those products where the BS EN Standard has been harmonised under the Construction Products Directive. BS EN 906 is the European standard for 'Lever handles & knob furniture' and is applicable only to items which are used to operate locks or latches.

STANDARDS & BS EN CLASSIFICATIONS Fire Testing Individual products are not in themselves fire tested, but are included as an integral part of a fire test carried out on a timber or steel fire door. As a consequence, the details of the test, the construction of the door, the inclusion of intumescent material etc must be considered when specifying products suitable for use on a fire door. Where Laidlaw products are indicated as suitable for fire door applications, the products have been successfully included on the test door which has achieved the stated rating. Laidlaw holds comprehensive test certification for all appropriate products and these are available on request. BS EN 25 & BS EN 79 Products which are designed to provide safe and effective escape from a building in an emergency situation are covered by two European standards which have clearly defined applications. BS EN 25 is the European standard for 'Panic Exit Devices'. The primary determining factor is that a 'Panic' device must be fitted where members of the public are present and have no prior knowledge of the exit or the hardware. BS EN 79 is the standard covering 'Emergency Exit Devices'. In 'Emergency' situations it is assumed the occupants will have prior knowledge of the exit and a panic situation is unlikely to occur.

DDA, APPROVED DOC. M & BS 800 The implementation of legislation in 996 made it a legal duty on those responsible for buildings used by the general public, and employers responsible for places of work, to ensure that the building and its facilities are accessible to disabled people. The aim of The Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) is to make it a duty to avoid discrimination againsts disabled people and this duty requires that Service Providers make "reasonable" adjustments to the design of the building in order to provide this universal level of access. The details on this page are a simple summary of the primary sources of information related to the use of hardware products in order to satisfy disabled access. The Disability Discrimination Act It is important to remember that the Disability Discrimination Act is civil rights legislation and does not set out specific requirements or guidance in the design of buildings. As such it is therefore not appropriate to attach any notion of conformity to products, such as "DDA compliant" or "Conforms to DDA requirements". The legislation came into force on st October 2004. Any new building or alterations to existing buildings, in order to satisfy obligations under the DDA, must comply (in England & Wales) with The Building Regulations, and in particular, the 2004 edition of Approved Document M (ADM) which became effective in May 2004. Where certain issues are not covered in ADM, further reference will be made to BS 800. Further detailed information can be obtained from the following: Office of the Deputy Prime Minister www.odpm.gov.uk Association of Buildiers Hardware Manufacturers www.abhm.org.uk BSI Customer Services cservices@bsi-global.com Office of Public Sector Information www.uk-legislation.hmso. gov.uk Disability Rights Commission www.drc-gb.org Guild of Architectural Ironmongers www.gai.org.uk Approved Document M (ADM) The main requirements set out in ADM are, as with all parts of The Building Regulations, performance based and the guidelines set out in the document are recognised as one way of achieving the requirements. The scope of the requirements are clearly set out, requiring that provision is made for people to "a) gain access to and b) use the building and its facilities". This includes the provision of sanitary accomodation in domestic and non-domestic buildings. ADM applies not only to new building but also to alterations and extension of existing buildings. Where certain issues are not covered within ADM, further reference will be made to BS 800. ADM contains a number of very specific requirements for the following aspects related to architectural hardware specification. Accessible Doors ADM recognises that negotiating entrance doors can be difficult for the general public, not just disabled people: parents with children, those carrying luggage or with pushchairs etc. It is stated within ADM that doors which are required to be self closing must require a force no greater than 20N at the leading edge in order to open them. In most practical applications "A powered door opening and closing system... is the most satisfactory solution for most people" (ADM 2.0). Although the 20 Newtons rule technically still exists it has been generally superceded by a two-phase criteria established within BS 800 in 2005. This states a maximum opening force of 0N at the initial opening stage (0 to 0 ), reducing to 22.5N from 0 to 60 opening angle. Fire & Smoke Doors BS EN 54 requires fire doors to be held closed by a door closer with a minimum power size. This requires a force in excess of 20N (see chart below) and therefore puts it into conflict with the 20N opening force requirement of ADM. In these circumstances ADM recommends the use of electromagnetic hold open or low energy door operators. For fire doors within corridors the preference is for electromagnetic hold open units. Where privacy is still a requirement, such as doors to individual rooms, an electromagnetic device which offers a 'swing free' facility is preferable. BS EN 54 min. closing moment Min. closing force (moment/door width) BS EN 54 min. closer efficiency Corresponding min. opening force BS EN 54 size 9 Nm 0.59 N 50% 2.8 N Note: calculations are based on a door leaf width of 850mm. BS EN 54 size 8 Nm 2.7 N 55% 8.5 N Internal Doors For internal doors which need to be self closing for privacy or environmental reasons, they must meet the maximum opening force criteria of 20N. In these circumstances a high efficiency variable power door control is required. When set to the lowest strength (size ) to reduce the opening force it may cause problems in latching the door, especially in locations which may be susceptible to drafts or air pressure differences. Locks with a 'soft action latch' and high quality hinges will help in making sure the door latches properly each time. BS 800:200 This standard provides guidance on good practice in the design of buildings to make them suitable for use by disabled people. The standard is often used as a supplement to ADM and includes more specific dimensional guidance, particularly regarding the sizes of door operating hardware. BS 800 contains the following recommendations related to architectural hardware specification. Accessible Doors Aside from the headline figures of ADM, the guidance in BS 800 points clearly to the use of powered solutions including low energy operators to achieve the level of accessibility required on external doors (including recommendations for the positioning of any manual controls. Fire & Smoke Doors Doors to escape stairs and final exit doors are not specifically covered in ADM. In BS 800 it is considered suitable to use a conventional door closer in these cases, as such doors are likely to be opening in the direction of escape (ie push to exit). In these situations BS 800 recommends a maximum opening force of 0N. Closing & Opening forces As can be seen from the chart opposite, a door closer power size with only the minimum efficiency allowed in the EN standard (50%) will not satisfy the maximum opening force to satisfy the 20N limit in ADM. Also clearly evident is the fact that a power size closer (the min. allowed in satisfying the requirements for a fire door) has an opening force at the edge of the door beyond the 0N maximum allowed in the revised regulations. Only high efficiency closers will therefore meet the dual requirements for an accessible fire door. www.laidlaw.net
DDA, APPROVED DOC. M & BS 800 Lever handle dimensions 9mmØ 'generous length' Lock & latch critical dimensions BS 800 54mm minimum 45mm minimum 72mm minimum Approved Document M (ADM) Door Opening Hardware Guidance on the specification for door hardware falls into 2 main categories - ability to grip and operate the hardware - ability to visually locate the hardware Ability to grip and operate the hardware The requirement within ADM is that "where fitted with a latch, the door opening furniture can be operated with one hand using a closed fist, e.g. a lever handle" (ADM 2.7). Whilst no specific dimensional requirements are laid down in ADM, such recommendations are covered in BS 800. It is a requirement of ADM that external handles (ie those used to open manual external doors), should not be 'cold to the touch'. Whilst most people will find a bare metal handle unpleasant to grip in the depths of winter, for some, particularly elderly people, it can be quite painful. Pull handle recommendations - BS 800 horizontal pull handle BS 800:200 Door Opening Hardware BS 800 is more detailed in its recommendations, prescribing dimensional parameters for locks & latches, lever and pull handle furniture. Locks & latches To improve physical and visual access to the lever and lock keyway, the distance from the edge of the door and between the lever and keyway should be maximised; "..the cylinder should either be above the lever handle, or the minimum distance between the handle and the keyway.. should be 72mm." (BS 800-6.5..2) It also requires a backset of 54mm minimum (from edge of door to the lockcase operating centre - see diagram opposite). Lever handles The principal requirements are that "where possible, door opening furnitue with a lever action should be used... without tightly grasping it or twisting the wrist e.g by using a closed fist".it also recommends levers return to the door face at the open end to aid the grip and avoid catching clothing. Dimensional characteristics for lever handles are covered by Fig. 7 of BS 800. See diagram opposite. Whilst lever handles are the preferred solution, there are circumstances where other issues can take precedence. The requirement to prevent self harm is one such issue where the risk associated with the lever furniture takes precedence over disabled access. Such situations will be covered by the provision of an Access Statement at the planning stage. min. length 600mm 400mm Pull handles Recommendations are included concerning the positioning and size of pull handles 900-00mm 000 preferred kicking plate 000mm 400mm Minimum diameter 9mm Projection from door face 45mm Mounting height for pull handles as shown opposite Recommendations also include the provision of a horizontal pull handle on doors fitted with a latch to enable wheelchair users to pull the door closed.see diagram opposite. Building Regulations in Scotland & Northern Ireland Technical Handbooks are published to guide specifiers in Scotland and Northern Ireland in much the same way as ADM but are not as detailed, offering little or no guidance in the specification of door hardware although the amended Technical Booklet (Part R) published in Northern Ireland does contain specific information related to handrailing and sanitary fittings. In most cases the Handbooks for Scotland refer specifiers to the guidance contained in BS 800. Grab rails Part M of Approved Document M of The Building Regulations covers the provision of sanitary facilities. Whilst not specifically part of the Orbis Premier range, we have a full range of grab rails and disabled fittings.

DDA, APPROVED DOC. M & BS 800 Approved Document M (ADM) Continued Colour contrast & light reflectance For people with impaired vision the ability to identify key objects in the environment determines their ability to live independantly. It is a requirement of ADM that "all door opening furniture (on manually operated doors) contrasts visually with the surface of the door" (ADM 2.7). "All door furniture should contrast in colour and luminance with the surface of the door..." (BS 800-6.5.) The measure of brightness or luminance is measured by the amount of light which objects reflect (Light Reflectance Value - LRV). Whilst people with impaired vision may not be able to easily identify colour they will generally be able to identify some reflected light. The greater the difference in LRV between the door and the hardware, ie the contrast between the two, the easier the hardware will be to locate. On a basic scale of - 00, where a black object which reflects very little light has a LRV of typically less than 0, the recommended contrast is 0 points of difference (although it is recognised that a value of 20 points may be adequate). Metallic finishes The suitability of metallic finishes is a complex issue due to numerous external factors which affect the percieved LRV of metallic substrates. The level and angle of incident light, the colour and nature of the door surface and the surrounding structure of walls, ceiling and floor will all have a bearing on the amount of light which each item of hardware reflects. It is therefore not possible to state which finishes are good and which are not; each must be judged in context to the surrounding environment. The use of backplates could contribute to increasing the visibility of the operating hardware. Recent Research The Research Group for Inclusive Environments was commissioned to undertake specific research in this area in association with the GAI (Guild of Architectural Ironmongers). A small (but nonetheless representative) group of visually impaired people tested actual ironmongery samples against various typical door finishes. Results showed that even at LRV differences of 0, over 72% of the test sample were confident of locating the hardware. It is thought that the D nature of the hardware, with its highlights and shadows contributes to the ease of location. Also, the nature of the hardware (gloss or matt) appeared to have no significant bearing on how easy it is to detect (see www.gai.org.uk for further information). Measurements Available to specifiers of Laidlaw products is a portable 'Spectrophotometer' which enables LRV readings to be taken of any material, for example door finishes and veneers, to compare with LRV readings of Laidlaw products. Please ask your Laidlaw Technical Consultant for more information. CPD seminars Laidlaw can provide a comprehensive series of RIBA approved CPD seminars including presentations covering DDA and Doc M issues. Subjects covered will include all aspects of colour contrast and demonstrations on the use of the 'Spectrophotometer'.
