A new online log book for automatic doors just launched by GEZE UK – which can be accessed via a QR code using a smartphone or tablet – means ‘there is no need to worry about lost or damaged log books again’.
Since the introduction of EN 16005 in April 2013, all automatic doors must have a log book to keep a detailed record of any servicing and maintenance work undertaken. Currently, an asset tag, detailing a unique reference code, is fitted to the door, and a physical log book issued. This is then completed by service and maintenance engineers when any work is undertaken.
GEZE UK said: “Log books that must be kept with automatic doors are frequently lost or misplaced. logbooqr allows the information to be recorded on a secure website, accessed via a QR code printed on the asset tag. The engineer can record the work done, while the end-user can check the log and see when the next service is due. In the event of accident or random spot check, health and safety inspectors can easily access this information to confirm that servicing and maintenance schedules are up to date.
“With logbooqr the engineer simply scans the QR code and updates the log, creating an accurate record accessible at any time. Because it is all recorded online, it can never get lost again.”
