TORMAX Automatic Doors Compliant with Martyn’s Law Security Requirements

TORMAX Automatic Doors

In response to the forthcoming Martyn's Law, officially known as the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill, TORMAX is proud to confirm that our automatic entrance systems already comply with the new security standards. Martyn's Law, introduced in the wake of the 2017 Manchester Arena attack, mandates public venues to implement enhanced security measures to protect against terrorist threats, particularly in venues with capacities over 100 people.

The Automatic Door Suppliers Association (ADSA) has welcomed the new legislation, highlighting the importance of access control systems in improving public safety. ADSA points out that powered pedestrian doors, equipped with emergency lockdown functions, are critical in responding swiftly to potential threats. These security upgrades, recommended by Martyn’s Law, include integrating doors with smart control systems that facilitate immediate lockdown and threat detection, enhancing both security and operational efficiency​. “TORMAX has long recognized the importance of safety and security in public spaces,” confirms Simon Roberts, MD for TORMAX.

“Our automatic entrance systems are already designed with an emergency close function, providing a rapid and effective response in critical situations. Unlike systems that deactivate safety sensors during lockdowns, TORMAX solutions can be set to maintain sensor functionality, ensuring safe and secure closure without compromising public safety.” www.tormax.co.uk
