Under the DDA Act 1995 (Disability Discrimination Act) it is a requirement that Service Providers and Employers make their buildings where services are provided more accessible. Failure to do so could result in cases being brought against them by those who are being discriminated against
The new amendment FAQ from the ODPM (Office of the Deputy Prime Minister) states “The opening force when measured from the leading edge of the door should not be more than 30 Newtons from 0° (closed position) to 30° open, and no more than 22.5 Newtons from 30° to 60° of the opening cycle” it also states "The opening force should be checked using a plunger-type force measuring instrument" such as the Pesola Audit Tool. Please find the full amendment in PDF format at www.gai.org.uk 
As these documents will be consulted in all disputes, it is essential that Service Providers and employers can ascertain accurately that these forces are being maintained to ensure that they are complying with the law and are safeguarding against personal cases being brought against them
