Fire Doors & Accessories FAQs
I am a disabled person and struggle to open the heavy fire doors in my home. Do you have a product that can legally hold them open and automatically close them when a fire is detected?
The
Dorgard will hold the fire door open and release it when the fire alarm sounds. Alternatively, fitting a
free-swing door closer will allow your fire door to function as if it didn't have a door closer fitted, swinging freely as any normal door. On the fire alarm going off, free-swing door closers automatically close the fire door.
