Unsafe Installation Practices
Do Not Install Door Operators In This Way
SABS - IEC 60335-Part 2 - 1995
sets down
certain safety standards for the automation of
garage doors. When two Tip-Up type doors
are coupled together in the way shown
above, the built-in "overload" sensors of the
door operator, regardless of make and type,
may be severly compromised to the extent
that they may not respond quickly enough, if
at all, to any obstructions in the path of the
door.
Should any door which is automated in this
manner cause an injury, or worse, to any
person or damage to property, both the
owner and the installer may be held jointly
and severably responsible and liable and
may suffer the consequences thereof.
Homeowners are advised to reject such
installations lest they be incriminated in any
claims.
The installation of door operators in this
manner will render all warranties, wether
stated or implied, null and void !
