Fire Door Hold-Open Devices in Crowthorne
Crowthorne landlords, managing agents and facilities teams can book fire door hold-open devices with straightforward reports and fixed prices.
A fire door hold-open device keeps a fire door open in normal use and releases it to close automatically when the fire alarm activates. Free-swing closers let the door move freely like an ordinary door, then close it on alarm.
