Fire Door Hold-Open Devices in Heanor

From the DE75 district outwards, we cover Heanor and neighbouring towns such as Ripley and Ilkeston for fire door hold-open devices.

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. We use the same method for buildings in Heanor.

Questions from Heanor clients

How often should they be tested?

With the weekly fire alarm test, and checked in detail at each fire door inspection.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Heanor?

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

Do you cover the area around Heanor?

Yes. As well as Heanor itself we cover nearby towns including Ripley, Ilkeston and Belper.

Do acoustic hold-open devices work with any alarm?

They listen for the alarm sounder, so the sounder must be loud enough at the door. We check the sound level and the alarm type before recommending one.
