Fire Door Closer Repairs in Bow: questions

Can fire doors be held open?

Only with a device designed to release the door automatically when the fire alarm sounds, such as an acoustic or alarm-linked electromagnetic hold-open. Wedges and hooks are not acceptable on fire doors.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Bow?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Bow is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those 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.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Bow?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Bow can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
