Understanding the value of the CE mark
Built for safety and your peace of mind
Why should I look for the CE mark?
When it comes to automatic doors – whether for public access or industrial use – quality, safety, and reliability matter. That’s why European standards like EN 16005 (for pedestrian doors) and EN 12453 (for industrial doors) exist: they help ensure your doors are safe to use and built to last.
Choosing a certified product may cost slightly more up front, but it reflects a higher standard of engineering, testing, and long-term value. It also means you’re getting what you expect – not just a door, but a safe and high-quality solution.
What is the CE mark?
The CE mark is a legal requirement under the EU Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC) for all power-operated doors. It means the door has been:
-
Independently tested for safety and performance
-
Verified against harmonized standards
-
Approved for legal installation across the EU
When you choose a CE-marked door from ASSA ABLOY, you choose verified safety, compliance, and reliability.
