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 Acocks Green.

Fire Door Closer Repairs in Acocks Green: questions

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.

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

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

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Acocks Green?

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

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.
