Our Door Pressure Gauge shows the amount of force (pounds or kilograms) required to open doors so you can determine if the door meets A.D.A. regulations. An absolutely vital tool if working on doors in facilities requiring full access to disabled persons. It can also be used to determine the amount of rolling force required to open or close patio doors. Range is from 0 to 35 lbs. (0 to 15.9 kg).. Part Numbers Variations: HMC035

The CRL Door Pressure Gauge performed perfectly. It's well designed, compact and so simple to use anyone using it for the first time should have no problems figuring out how to use it. The price was right and I'd recommend it to anyone who's trying to meet ADA compliance door pressure requirements.

The pressure gauge was easy to use, and it's results believable. Did not require any skills (or strength) other than the ability to open a door in the first place.

Required by inspectors so that all doors in our new building opened at no more than 5lbs. Interestingly the inspector used the same gauge. I worked perfectly and we passed with flying colors, all 20+ doors.

This is a simple device that measures the force needed to open doors. The Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 mandates that no more than five pounds of force be needed to open doors. This simple, somewhat ungainly device is a handy tool for measuring the force required for opening a door. It has a clip, though I find mine will slip out of my shirt pocket because of its length and weight. I would have appreciated a protective case so I could slip it into a pants pocket or waist pack. The numbers measuring the force are a challenge to read. They are on the small side and printed in black ink on a silver metal background. They would be much better if printed as black on white, yellow on black or white on black. Overall, this gauge does the job reasonably well for the money.Jerry

good to have for ADA doors

I’ve used this door pressure gauge about 30 times to date to measure both interior and exterior wood and metal doors during ADA surveys. It’s an attention getter. People ask what it is and if they can try it. The assembly is sturdier expected. A case would be nice. Even when it’s in the backseat I can hear it rattling around when driving.

I used this product to test the ADA for the push/pull requirements for doors. It works as described, nothing fancy it just works. set the rubber grommet to zero, push firmly against the push side of the door and grommet will slide to the pressure read out point. Then reset to zero and repeat. simple and easy.

The device arrived with no packing or paperwork besides a large cardboard box.As far as I can tell, no instructions either. I cannot determine how to calibrate the device or verify if it is correctly calibrated. Therefore this device is useless to me.
