FERMOD has taken the standards that apply to the supplied products into consideration.
1.2 - Liabilities
1 - The manufacturer of the door, the installer and the user must observe the safety rules (collective protection,
individual protection) applicable during transport, assembly, use, and discarding of the door or its components.
2 - The liability of the user may be engaged in circumstances that are not marginal. Thus, the user must scrupulously
comply with the recommendations for storage, assembly, use, maintenance, health and safety, use-by date, etc.
supplied by the manufacturer.
Likewise, where the producer be held liable for the non-conformity of the product, the user may also share the
liability, insofar as he has not, from his side, checked this conformity, even if the product in question is administratively
in conformity. The user is also held liable if he himself increases the fault in the product. The liability of the
manufacturer can be reduced or eliminated, taking all the circumstances into consideration, when the damage
is caused jointly by the product, and by the fault of the victim or a person for whom the victim is responsible
(D. general safety of products 92/59/EEC et D. liability from the fact of faulty products 85/374/EEC).
3 - Safety devices fitted to the doors are not intended to prevent any wilful act of the operator or persons nearby
(EN12604 §4.1.2).
4 - The choice of options follows the type of door installed. It is the door manufacturer's responsibility to ensure
the compatibility of accessories according to the characteristics of the door and the conditions of use
(EN12604 § 4.2.1).
5 - The manufacturer and / or installer must give each customer a file showing that the products used do not emit
any dangerous substance beyond the maximum authorized levels, specified in the appropriate European stan-
dards or in other national specifications, in the event of fire (EN 13241-1 §4.2.9)
6 - The installer is required to ensure the traceability of assembly and inspection operations effectively carried out
(EN 13241-1 §6.4).
7 - The staff of the company installing the equipment, and / or staff of the user company in charge of specific
functions, such as maintenance, must be qualified, trained and certified in the case of particularly risky work,
such as work under power (D. Safety at work 89/655/EEC modified 95/63/EEC art.7 / CT art. R 233-
2).
8 - The final user must carry out the periodical yearly or twice-yearly checks, or have them carried out, with
keeping of a maintenance register (D. Safety at work - 89/655/EEC modified 95/63/EEC - art. 4b / CT
R 233-1-2 and R 233-11-1).
