Dual Use 8 – Motion Detection for Indoor/Outdoor Overhead Door Safety
The Dual Use 8 EXT DOD is a two-way motion-activated alert system designed for forklift traffic passing through overhead doorways, with one side having exterior rated components. Each sensor detects traffic on one side of the wall, activating bright red warning light on the opposite side to alert approaching workers or drivers of incoming traffic, creating a safer, more visible transition zone.

Key Features of the Dual Use 8 EXT DOD
• Two motion sensors mounted on opposite sides of a doorway; one interior sensor and one exterior sensor (each sensor has 90° coverage, 35' x 35')
• Two bright red LED warning lights on the large interior yellow box, one bright red LED strobe warning light
• Standard 4–5 second light activation time
• Top-mounted switch for extended flash timing (15 or 30 seconds)
• Easy plug-and-play installation - no electrician required. Simply plug into an existing outlet 110/120V outlet.
• Durable steel enclosure designed for industrial settings
• Optional second interior sensor
• Optional second exterior sensor
• Optional audible alarm (88 dBa) available as an add-on for the interior (audible)
• Optional audible alarm (100dBa) available as an add-on for the exterior (selectable audible)
• Optional bright red wall burst light available for the interior yellow box for enhanced visual warning

6 Ways the Dual Use 8 EXT DOD Improves Warehouse Safety
• Warns forklift drivers and pedestrians on both sides as traffic is approaching
• Reduces risks at overhead doorways, which often have limited visbility of the other side
• Supports OSHA-aligned best practices for traffic hazard awareness
• Helps establish safer traffic flow through key entry/exit points for interior to exterior applications
• Provides consistent, attention-grabbing alerts that don’t rely on mirrors or paint
• Provides visbility and warning for exterior, cooler, and freezer applications where other products simply fall short

Where to Use the Dual Use 8 EXT DOD
• In warehouses, distribution centers, and industrial facilities where exterior openings connect to forklift pathing
• Strip doors, high speed doors, and pass through openings for cooler and freezer applications
• Any transition zone with two directions of traffic where a wall prevents visibility of the other side where one side requires exterior rated equipment
• Any transition zone between indoor to outdoor with little to no visibility

Give your team the visibility they need, before overhead door openings become danger zones. The Dual Use 8 is easy to install and built to last with a simple, reliable design and highly visible lighting. Creates a safer warehouse environment by alerting oncoming traffic of those on the opposite side, before accidents happen.
