5. NZS4121:2001: To comply with NZS4121:2001 the centre of the handles should be positioned between

900mm and 1200mm (1000mm optimal) above finished floor level. There must be a minimum clear
walk through of 760mm (Aust. 850mm). There must be a 45mm clear space from edge of pull handle
to door jamb when the doors are fully open. The supplied ‘Down to Lock’ label must be positioned as
close as possible to the locking handle. Consult local standards for guidelines relating to the specific
project.

USA ADA (American Disabilities Act) Guidelines: Handle should be positioned between 34 - 48”

above finished floor level. Allow a minimum of four inches for the protrusion of the door in the
open position. This can be achieved by using track stops or blocking in the back of the pocket.
Consult local standards for guidelines relating to the specific project.

WARNING: THE BI-PARTING CHASSIS CONTAINS A STRONG MAGNET

IRON FILINGS - Magnets will attract shavings from iron or ferrous metals which may be

hard to remove. Keep magnets a safe distance away from these materials.

DANGER FOR CHILDREN - Magnets may cause serious injury if swallowed. Keep out of reach of
children.
CRUSHING, BLISTERS AND CUTS - Fingers may become caught between magnets resulting in
crushing, blisters or cuts.
BREAKING OR CHIPPING - It is possible that magnets could chip or shatter on contact with other
hard materials, resulting in chips flying off at high speed into someone’s eye. Chips can also be
very sharp - treat them as you would broken glass.
MAGNETICALLY SENSITIVE ITEMS - Keep a safe distance between the magnet and all objects
that can be damaged by magnetism (e.g. mechanical watches, pacemakers, cell phones etc.).

DISPOSAL - Magnets should be disposed of carefully and in accordance with your local regulations.

IMPORTANT: Install THIS handle FIRST
