Elevator 2D & 3D Door Detection

Elevator doors are more than just a gateway to vertical transportation; they are a critical component in ensuring the safety of passengers. However, they also represent one of the most significant risk points within an elevator system. Elevator Light Curtains (Safety Edges) act as protective barriers across elevator doors using infrared sensors. When an obstruction, like a passenger or object, interrupts this barrier, the doors automatically reverse to prevent accidents.
There are two main types:

2D Detection Systems: Positioned between the elevator doors, they ensure nothing gets trapped during closure
3D Door Detection Systems: Beyond monitoring between the doors, they also detect obstructions in the landing area, offering superior safety

Elevator Communications Failure

In the realm of elevator safety, continuous communication is paramount. Elevator emergencies can be distressing, and the last thing one would want is a non-functional communication line. Recognizing this, the ASME 17.1 code has set forth specific requirements to ensure that elevator phone lines are always monitored for activity and operational.
Phone Line Monitoring requirements include:

End-to-End Monitoring
Immediate Alerts
Location Specific Alert

Signage

Comprehensive communication and evacuation plans are critical in emergency situations. Signs are an integral part of these plans and quickly direct a person into action and ensure that no matter what the situation or emergency, instructions are always understood Code requirements state that 4 types of proper signage must be visible to direct individuals to these safe locations ‘Area of Refuge’ signage is required per International Building Code (IBC) 2009 ‘Elevator Landing’ (Emergency Communication) signage is required per International Building International Building Code (IBC) 2009 ‘Area of Rescue Assistance’ signage is required under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and early versions of the International Building Code (IBC). States that have not adopted the IBC 2009 or later codes may still refer to these locations as Areas of Rescue Assistance and the signs shall have verbiage to reflect this.
