Motorline Safety Sensor for Automatic Swing Doors | RAP5M-PRO Safety Sensor High-Performance Infrared Safety Beam System
Product SKU: MOL-RAP5M-PRO
Motorline RAP5M-PRO Safety Sensor | Automatic Swing Door Safety Beam Australia
Enhance safety with the Motorline RAP5M-PRO infrared safety sensor for automatic pedestrian swing doors. Advanced detection, 6-point safety curtain, and reliable obstruction protection. Ideal for shopfronts and commercial doors across Australia.


The Motorline RAP5M-PRO Safety Sensor is a high-performance infrared safety beam system designed specifically for automatic pedestrian swing door operators. Built for commercial environments such as shopfronts, healthcare facilities, and public access buildings, it delivers reliable obstacle detection and enhanced user safety.
With a multi-point detection curtain and adjustable infrared beams, the RAP5M-PRO ensures doors operate safely by preventing contact with pedestrians or objects during opening and closing cycles.

6-Point Detection Safety Curtain
Provides full-width protection across swing doors, improving pedestrian safety
Infrared Safety Beams (5°–25° Adjustable)
Detects obstacles close to the floor, reducing trip and impact risks
Wide Detection Coverage (90–100 cm)
Ideal for standard pedestrian swing door widths
Installation Height up to 2.6m
Flexible mounting for various commercial door applications
Real-Time Surface & Reflection Monitoring
Ensures consistent detection performance in changing environments
Internal & External Safety Monitoring System
Adds redundancy and reliability for critical safety applications
Simple Configuration via Push Buttons
Fast setup and commissioning for installers
Durable Commercial-Grade Construction
Built to withstand installation and long-term use

The Motorline RAP5M-PRO is an advanced automatic door safety sensor engineered to protect users and improve compliance in automatic swing door systems. Using infrared safety beam technology, it creates a protective detection curtain across the door opening area.
This ensures that if a person or object is detected, the door operator will stop or reverse movement, preventing accidents and damage. The system is particularly suited for:
Retail shopfront automatic doors
Hospitals and aged care facilities
Office buildings and commercial entrances
Public infrastructure and transport hubs
Its adjustable beam angles and intelligent surface detection make it highly effective in environments with varying lighting, floor finishes, or reflective surfaces.
For Australian installations, the RAP5M-PRO supports safer compliance with automatic door safety expectations, making it an essential component in any professional swing door automation system.

A safety sensor is a device that detects obstacles in the path of an automatic door and prevents it from closing on people or objects. The RAP5M-PRO uses infrared beams to create a safety curtain across the door opening.
Yes, safety sensors are strongly recommended (and often required) to meet safety standards for automatic doors, especially in commercial and public environments.
It detects pedestrians and objects in real time, ensuring the door stops or reverses before contact, reducing injury risk and liability.
Yes, the RAP5M-PRO is compatible with most automatic swing door systems that support safety input connections.
Unlike simple motion sensors, the RAP5M-PRO provides a multi-point safety curtain, offering continuous protection across the entire door opening area.
It is typically mounted above or near the door frame at heights up to 2.6m, angled to cover the door swing path.
The Motorline RAP5M-PRO Safety Sensor is a premium infrared safety solution for automatic pedestrian swing doors, delivering advanced detection, reliability, and compliance-ready protection.
For Australian installers and businesses, it is a must-have component for ensuring safe, efficient, and professional automatic door operation.
MR30 → Infrared activation radar sensor
M1601 → Advanced motion + direction detection radar
RAP5M-PRO → Safety infrared curtain sensor (protection device)
Key Difference:
MR30 & M1601 = door activation
RAP5M-PRO = door safety/protection

The MR30 is an infrared-based radar sensor designed to activate automatic doors when movement is detected.
Standard swing or sliding doors
Small to medium traffic environments
Adjustable detection area and sensitivity
Active infrared detection technology
Max installation height: 3m
Self-monitoring and configurable presence timing
Not a safety device
Can trigger from non-intended movement
The M1601 is a next-level microwave radar sensor with enhanced capabilities, including direction detection and reflection analysis.
High-traffic commercial entrances
Environments requiring smarter activation
Reducing unnecessary door openings
Detects approaching vs departing people
Larger detection field (up to 6m x 3m)
Adjustable sensitivity and angles
Better energy efficiency (fewer false triggers)
Still not a safety device
Requires correct setup for optimal performance
The RAP5M-PRO is a dedicated safety sensor, not an activation radar. It creates a multi-point infrared safety curtain across the door opening.
Automatic swing doors (mandatory safety layer)
Healthcare, retail, and public buildings
Compliance-focused installations in Australia
6 detection points for full-width protection
Detects obstacles near the floor (critical safety zone)
Prevents the door from opening/closing on people or objects
Internal + external monitoring system
Does NOT activate doors
Must be paired with a radar (MR30 or M1601)
| Application | Recommended Setup |
|---|---|
| Highly Safety Sensitive Pedestrian Traffic Sites | MR30 + RAP5M-PRO |
| Medium Commercial Entry | M1601 + RAP5M-PRO |
| High-Traffic Site | M1601 + RAP5M-PRO |
| Safety and Compliance-Focused Installation | Any radar + RAP5M-PRO |
MR30 = Reliable, entry-level activation sensor
M1601 = More powerful radar with a larger detection area
RAP5M-PRO = Essential safety sensor (collision prevention)
Critical Insight:
A complete automatic swing door system requires:
Activation sensor (MR30 or M1601)
Safety sensor (RAP5M-PRO)
For most Australian commercial installations:
Best overall system: MR30 + RAP5M-PRO
Best value system: M1601 + RAP5M-PRO
Safety-critical environments: Always include RAP5M-PRO
Yes. The radar opens the door, while the safety sensor prevents accidents. Both are required for safe operation.
Depend on the requirements:
M1601 best for: Microwave motion detection radar, up to 3000mm high, for High-traffic entrances.
MR30 best for: Compact infrared radar with double safety curtain and configurable presence timer. Easy installation and extremely compact infrared radar, designed to activate automatic doors from up to 3m away, for sensitive traffic management entrances.
For commercial and public-facing automatic swing doors, safety sensors like RAP5M-PRO are strongly recommended and often required for compliance.
