Potential risks and dangers when using public transport
Conventional door systems are mostly unable to react to spontaneous situations. Closing doors without any safety mechanisms may lead to perilous situations in public transport for passengers travelling by bus or train, for example:
Conventional door locking systems are mostly unable to react to spontaneous situations.
Passengers may get stuck in locking systems and have to deal with extremely stressful situations.
School pupils may get trapped in doors and face serious danger.
People and objects getting trapped in doors leads to severe accidents and injuries.
GWU solutions finally provide safety
We focus on producing innovative finger protection profiles and rubber sealing systems that make buses and trains even safer to use. This means permanently preventing the risk of people or objects getting trapped in door areas, thus achieving optimal safety in public transport. GWU uses the following solutions to make getting on and off trains and buses a safer experience:
Finger protection profiles with an integrated safety contact edge
With this solution, doors open immediately to prevent trapping. We develop finger protection profiles tailored to suit your specific application and with a pre-installed safety edge.
Finger protection profiles with light curtains for non-contact anti-trap protection
The non-contact light curtain system, which is integrated into the finger protection profile of the door system, actively detects people and objects in the danger area and prevents collisions.
