How the dormakaba ED100LE Works

Step 1 – Door Activation

A pedestrian activates a compatible push plate, touchless sensor, access control device, or the configured Push-N-Go function.

Step 2 – Electronic Lock Release

If compatible electronic locking hardware is connected, the operator coordinates the release before initiating the opening cycle.

Step 3 – Automatic Door Opening

The electromechanical drive opens the door according to the programmed speed, opening angle, and operating parameters.

Step 4 – Adjustable Hold-Open

The door remains open for the selected time to allow pedestrian passage.

Step 5 – Controlled Closing

The operator returns the door to its closed position using the configured closing and latching characteristics.

Step 6 – Manual Operation

The door can also be operated manually, with power assistance available when appropriately configured.
