LSD-Doors - The world`s only crash tested solution!
Side impact test for Lambo Style Doors delivers impressive safety evidence
- German DEKRA tested in compliance with R95 and ECE directive
- Any misgivings about safety can be entirely dispelled.
- The requirements of the applicable directives on car manufacturers are fully met.
( Test confirms occupant protection and ease of rescue. )
- 'Made in Germany' quality
The side impact test proved it: The patented LSD hinge system offers optimum safety
in the event of a side impact. The test was conducted in accordance with the directives
applicable to car manufacturers, ECE-R95, and EU directive 96/27/EEC. The DEKRA Accident
Research and Crash Test Centre also confirmed: A vehiccle equipped with LSD doors offers
the necessary protection and guarantees optimum safety for its occupants. The stress loads
on occupant dummies actually fall short of the maximum permitted values.
Optimum safety for the occupants
The side impact test impressively demonstrates the extreme loads which components and occupants
are exposed. In the side impact test, which is conducted in compliance with the applicable
directives, a moving barrier is accelerated up to a speed of 50km/h (30mph). Then this barrier
is caused to impact laterally on the driver's side of the vehicle. 'At the wheel' sits a dummy,
model Euro - SID 1, equipped with sensors and connected to measuring instruments.
The doors did not open during the impact.
Ease of rescue
The rescue of the occupants also satisfied the EU directive to its full extent. Rescue through
the passenger door was effected with no difficulty, and without the assistance of any tools.
On the driver's side it was still possible to swing the door open in an upward direction, as a
result of the LSD hinge mechanism. This means that in the event of a serious accident it would
be possilble to effect the rescue of the occupants even more swiftly.
'Made in Germany' quality
In contrast to other retrofit kits for Lambo Style Doors, the LSD door fittings, 'Made in Germany',
are impressive due to their highly developed technology and the highest possible quality standarts.
