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 Sutton.

Fire Door Closer Repairs in Sutton: questions

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Sutton?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Sutton 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.

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.

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

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