Signage
Install all safety, traffic control, and instruction decals to the door as required. This is
very important. Failure to do this leaves the installer LIABLE for any accident that
might occur. This must be done!
A summary of the ANSI standard 156.19 requirements for safety decals is as follows:
Each decal shall be mounted on the door at a height of 58 ±5”(1470 ±130 mm)
from the floor to the centre line of the sign. The sign chosen will depend on the
classification of the door operator.
