11B-404.3.2 Maneuvering clearance.

Clearances at power-assisted doors and gates shall comply with Section 11B-404.2.4. Clearances at automatic doors and gates without standby power and serving an accessible means of egress shall comply with Section 11B-404.2.4.

Exception: Where automatic doors and gates remain open in the power-off condition, compliance with Section 11B-404.2.4 shall not be required.

ETA Editor's Note

Implications of 11B-404.3.2: Power-assist devices (ANSI/BHMA A156.19) cannot substitute for required door maneuvering clearances, even if standby power is provided. Automatic door operators (ANSI/BHMA A156.10) can substitute for required door maneuvering clearances under one of the following conditions: a) standby power is provided; or, b) the door or gate remains open during power failure or cessation.
