Fire Door Closer Repairs in Paisley

We provide fire door closer repairs for buildings in Paisley and the PA2 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

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 Paisley.

Common questions in Paisley

Do you cover the area around Paisley?

Yes. As well as Paisley itself we cover nearby towns including Renfrew, Clydebank and Newton Mearns.

Does regulation 10 apply in Paisley?

No. Paisley is in Scotland, which has its own fire safety law. The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 cover workplaces, HMOs and other non-domestic premises; common parts of private blocks of flats are largely outside them.

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.

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.
