Fire Door Retainer Installation

In order to provide proper compartmentation of a building, fire doors need to remain shut to block the spread of fire and smoke, and facilitate a smooth evacuation. The weight of fire doors can however make the opening of them inconvenient in high traffic areas such as hospitals and restaurants. Using objects to wedge fire doors open is illegal, however the use of fire door retainers and holders such as the Dorgard allows doors to remain open legally during normal use, but also allow them to close in the event of a fire by reacting to the building's fire alarm system.

The professional installation of Dorgard Fire Door Retainers offered by Safelincs provides maximum convenience in high traffic areas of buildings, while ensuring compliance with relevant regulations for both fire doors and electronic hold-open devices.
