Barrier-Free Washroom Control Kits

Locking and Automating Washroom Doors for a Barrier-Free Restroom!

Did you know?

Under the Alberta and National Building Codes, any new construction or major renovation project must include at least one fully barrier-free washroom. That means whether you’re building in Calgary, Edmonton, Red Deer, Lethbridge, Medicine Hat, Banff, Leduc, St. Albert, Fort McMurray — or pretty much anywhere across Alberta — automatic door operators on accessible washrooms aren’t optional… they’re required.

So yes — your next project will need an accessible washroom entrance with an automatic door, built to code and ready to welcome everyone and we’re here to help.

How it Works

Each barrier-free washroom must be equipped with an automatic operator and accessories which allows the user to open the door, enter the bathroom and allow the door to close behind them.

The interior “lock” button is pressed when the door has been closed locking the door in place. The buttons usually displays a red color showing the bathroom being locked and occupied.

When the user is ready to leave the bathroom they would hit the “open door” button which would unlock the door and open with the door opener.

A typical barrier-free universal washroom control kit includes a door opener, electric strike, relay, door contact, push to lock and push to open buttons.

There are also optional emergency call stations, duress buttons, and alarm systems when specified, but may require full time on site security staff in the building for those applications.
