The Door Locking Devices by Schmersal are engineered to provide reliable locking and monitoring of elevator landing doors in modern lift systems. These devices are part of the AV series, specifically developed for both single-leaf and double-leaf doors, ensuring safe elevator operation under all conditions.
The system operates using a fail-safe interlocking mechanism, which prevents the elevator from moving if the door is open or not securely locked. This is a critical requirement defined under international lift safety standards such as EN 81-20/50 and the Lifts Directive 2014/33/EU.
Schmersal door locking devices are available in various configurations, including metal or thermoplastic housings, different locking elements, and actuator options such as levers, pull straps, or brackets. The devices feature a locking bolt with 22 mm travel, ensuring proper engagement depth for safe operation.
Additionally, the system includes a manual emergency release mechanism (triangle key), allowing safe access from outside during maintenance or emergency situations. These devices are widely used in passenger elevators as well as industrial lift systems, providing dependable performance and long service life.
