Fire Door Hardware & Ironmongery

Fire door hardware are vital components for the functionality of a fire door. Fire door retainers ensure that a door is held open safely without compromising the safety and allowing for improved ventilation and accessibility. In the event of an emergency, such as a fire, fire door retainers release the door automatically slowing down the spread of smoke and fire allowing the occupants time to evacuate.

Overhead door closers ensure that fire doors are closed completely after every use, unless held open safely with a door holder, therefore limiting the spread of fire throughout the building. These closers can be installed in three different configurations which are often referred to as Fig 1, 61, and 66 positions. Although not every closer can be installed in all three positions, and this is specified within the fitting instructions.
