Memco's Panachrome lift safety detection system has been installed at the Playhouse Theatre in Harlow, Essex, by Accord Lift Services Ltd, one of the UK's leading independent lift companies.

Designed specifically for applications where additional safety is required by users, the Panachrome offers maximum passenger protection. The traditional 154 beam infra-red light curtain is coupled with coloured indicators that operate on door movement. The detectors will illuminate green if the doors are opening, flash red as they start to close, and stay red as the doors move together.

Keith Vines, Accord's Installation Manager, remarked, "We have been very impressed with Memco's Panachrome products - so much so that we have now standardised them across all our applications."

John Harty, Facilities Manager at the Playhouse added, "We are very happy with the installation as it ensures the safety of our customers when using the venue's lifts."
