Fire Door Closer Repairs in Gorseinon

Whether it is a block of flats, a school or a care home in Gorseinon, our fire door closer repairs follow the same door-by-door method and report format.

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 Gorseinon.

Fire Door Closer Repairs in Gorseinon: questions

Do you work in occupied buildings in Gorseinon?

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

What closer does a fire door need?

A closer tested to BS EN 1154 with a power size suited to the door's width and weight, and evidence it can be used on the door type. Concealed closers need specific test evidence for the door.

Does regulation 10 apply in Gorseinon?

No. Gorseinon is in Wales and regulation 10 is English law. The Fire Safety Order 2005 still requires fire doors to be maintained, and many Welsh landlords follow the same quarterly and annual routine as good practice.

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.
