The subway doors mentioned include the subway vehicle doors, the platform screen doors (PSD), cab side doors, and emergency evacuation doors. The subway doors are divided into electric and pneumatic doors by the power source, commonly. The operation interval and the time spent at a station are short so the frequent switching action is easy to cause failures of vehicle doors. This, coupled with peak passenger flow congestion, makes it more likely to cause accidents. According to statistics, the fault of the subway door mechanisms has accounted for 30% of total vehicle system failure, in which door safety involved in accidents must be taken seriously. In this paper, an analysis of the safety of subway doors are presented, and suggestions are given for improvement measures, including safety suggestions for subway construction facilities and policy system.
