Perform Automatic Door Maintenance Inspection using eAuditor

Automatic Door Maintenance refers to the regular inspection, servicing, and repair of automatic doors to ensure they function safely and efficiently. This includes checking door mechanisms, sensors, and electrical components, as well as ensuring proper alignment and operation.

eAuditor is an excellent tool for performing Automatic Door Maintenance Inspections, enabling you to inspect, document, and track maintenance tasks for automatic doors efficiently. Below is a step-by-step guide on how to perform an Automatic Door Maintenance inspection using eAuditor.

Steps to Perform Automatic Door Maintenance Inspection Using eAuditor

1. Create an Automatic Door Maintenance Checklist

Start by creating a maintenance checklist in eAuditor customized to your automatic door system. The checklist should include all essential inspection tasks to ensure the door operates safely and efficiently.

Key Sections to Include in the Checklist:

1. General Information

   • Inspection Date & Time
   • Inspector Name
   • Location of the Door (e.g., entrance, back door, emergency exit)
   • Door Model & Serial Number

2. Door Functionality

   • Does the door open and close properly?
   • Are there any unusual sounds (e.g., squeaks, grinding) during operation?
   • Does the door stop and reverse if an obstruction is detected?

3. Sensor and Safety Checks

   • Are sensors functioning properly (e.g., do they detect motion or obstacles and activate the door)?
   • Sensor lenses should be clean and free from dirt or debris.
   • Are the safety sensors calibrated to detect objects or people in the door’s path?
   • Check for proper alignment and positioning of sensors.
   • Does the door reverse direction or stop if the sensors detect an obstruction?

4. Electrical System Check

   • Are all electrical connections secure and undamaged?
   • Is the control panel operating correctly (e.g., no warning lights or errors)?
   • Are there any power fluctuations or electrical issues?
   • Are fuses or circuit breakers intact and functional?

5. Alignment & Movement

   • Are the door tracks free from obstructions, debris, or damage?
   • Is the door properly aligned with the tracks and frame?
   • Do the door panels move smoothly along the tracks without resistance or sticking?
   • Are the hinges and moving parts lubricated?

6. Seals & Weatherstripping

   • Are door seals and weatherstripping intact and in good condition?
   • There should be any gaps or leaks that could affect energy efficiency.
   • Are the seals and strips clean and free of debris?

7. Cleaning & Maintenance

   • Are the door surfaces (glass, metal) clean and free from dirt, grime, or graffiti?
   • Are door tracks and edges free from debris or buildup?
   • Check for proper lubrication of all moving parts (e.g., motors, hinges).

8. Repairs & Parts Replacement

   • Are there any damaged or worn-out parts that need immediate repair or replacement (e.g., seals, motor, tracks, hinges)?
   • Are any parts under warranty or in need of service by a professional?

2. Conduct the Inspection & Capture the Evidence

Use eAuditor’s mobile app or desktop version to perform the inspection:

• Capture Photos: Take pictures of the door, sensors, tracks, and any damaged parts that need attention (e.g., cracked seals, misaligned tracks).
• Record Notes: Add detailed notes for each checklist item to document findings (e.g., “Sensor misaligned by 2 inches, needs adjustment” or “Track clean and free of debris”).
• Voice Notes: Use voice notes to provide extra explanations or report issues in more detail.

3. Assign Corrective Actions & Track Progress

If issues are found, you can immediately assign corrective actions:

• Assign Tasks: Tag relevant team members or contractors who need to address the issues (e.g., “Align sensor properly” or “Replace damaged weatherstripping”).
• Set Priorities: Mark corrective actions as high, medium, or low priority based on severity.
• Set Deadlines: Define due dates for addressing the issues to ensure they are resolved promptly.
• Track Progress: Use eAuditor’s task-tracking feature to monitor the completion of each action.

4. Generate Reports & Share with Teams

Once the inspection is complete, eAuditor generates a detailed report:

• Inspection Results: Overview of the automatic door’s condition, including any issues identified.
• Photos & Notes: Visual evidence and supporting documentation to highlight areas needing attention.
• Corrective Actions: A list of identified issues, their severity, and assigned corrective tasks.

Export & Share Reports

• Export the report in PDF, Word, or CSV format for easy sharing with management, maintenance teams, or contractors.
• Automatically send reports to relevant parties or stakeholders.
• Schedule follow-up inspections to verify the completion of corrective actions and ensure ongoing door functionality.

5. Ongoing Monitoring & Preventive Maintenance

For continuous improvement:

• Schedule Recurring Inspections: Set up periodic automatic door inspections in eAuditor to ensure continuous optimal performance.
• Review Historical Data: Analyze past reports to identify patterns or recurring issues that need attention.
• Track Parts Lifespan: Use eAuditor to monitor the condition of parts like seals, sensors, and motors, and plan for replacement or servicing before failures occur.
