Introduction
Precision is pleased to offer its latest product line designed
to maximize public door accessibility for Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA) Title III applications. The D-4990
Low Energy Operator offers Precision’s newest and
most convenient features to gain safe access for ADA
applications.
ADA is a civil rights law that is intended to guarantee
equality for those who are physically handicapped
or disabled. There are four major sections of the bill
and they are intended to prohibit discrimination in
Employment, Public Service, Public Accommodations, and
Telecommunications. Precision's focus is on Title III (Public ADA Access
Accommodations). Title III is not a product specification
or a building code, but a directive to ensure equality in
accessibility within public buildings. Such things as door
opening size, door opening force requirements, door
closing time, degree of door opening, and door and lock
handle designs must all be addressed to satisfy the ADA
guidelines. D-4990 Low Energy Operator (Non-handed)

ADA “Blue-Paint” access
From the moment a physically disabled person enters
the facility parking lot, they immediately begin looking
for the ADA “blue- paint” and signage. All subsequent
entry decisions are based on following the “blue-paint”
pathways designed to provide access.
After parking, attention quickly turns to locating a barrier-
free ramp leading to the entry way and door actuator.
Although the Precision D-4990 Low Energy Operator can
be useful on a variety of locations, the ADA “blue-paint” ADA “Blue-Paint” Access ADA Door Opening Access
clearly defines a need for assisted ingress/egress.
