A fire door closer is the self-closing device that pulls a fire door shut after it has been opened. If the closer cannot close the door fully into its frame and engage the latch, the door cannot hold back fire or smoke. We use the same method for buildings in Brighton.

Common questions in Brighton

My door slams. Is that a fault?

Yes. A slamming door wears hinges and frames and can injure users. The closing speed and latching action can usually be adjusted.

Can you price remedial work in Brighton from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Brighton, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

Which fire safety law applies in Brighton?

Brighton is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

Why won't my fire door close properly?

Common causes are a closer set too weak, a latch out of line with the keep, dropped hinges, a seal binding at the edge, or flooring that has raised the threshold. We find the cause before adjusting the closer.
