The contactless door sensor provides a hygienic, reliable, and accessible solution for automatic door activation, access control systems, door entry applications, and other switching requirements. Designed for hardwired installations, this touch-free door sensor combines modern technology with user-friendly operation, making it an ideal alternative to traditional mechanical push pads.

Fully DDA compliant, the AHAND has been developed to support accessibility for all users, including those with physical disabilities, visual impairments, or hearing difficulties. The contactless activation technology eliminates the need for physical pressure, making door operation easier while helping to reduce contact with high-touch surfaces.

The sensor features adjustable sensitivity, allowing installers to tailor the detection range to suit the environment and application. When activated, users receive clear confirmation through audible alerts and LED indicators, improving usability and providing reassurance that the activation signal has been received.

To further support hygiene-sensitive environments, the AHAND incorporates an antimicrobial surface that kills 99.9% of germs, making it a cleaner alternative to conventional mechanical switches. Suitable for healthcare facilities, schools, offices, public buildings, retail environments, and other high-traffic locations, the sensor helps organisations create safer and more hygienic spaces.

Available in a variety of styles and finishes, the AHAND can also be customised with bespoke text, company branding, and logos, allowing it to integrate seamlessly into any installation.

◾ Contactless door sensor doesn’t beep when touched

Step-by-step checks: After each step below, de-power the system for 10 seconds and power it back up.

Screw the sensor to the wall properly, don’t have it dangling or in your hand.
Change the sensitivity.
Ensure the jumper next to the touch sensor relay is on and is making properly.
Make sure 0V is in the correct terminal, not the REM terminal.
Use a multimeter to check you’ve got voltage at the touch sensor (+V Red & 0V black).
Take off the wall and connect power directly to the power supply on a short piece of cable to rule out any cable issues or short circuits.

▪ Contactless door sensor activates randomly

Solution:

Turn down the sensitivity on the sensor, especially if there is emergency lighting nearby.
Make sure there isn’t excess cable in the back box.
Re-terminate all connections.
Touch sensors can be activated by changes in voltage which is a problem on unregulated power supplies. Fit a separate transformer.
