Fire Door Hold-Open Devices in High Peak
Whether it is a block of flats, a school or a care home in High Peak, our fire door hold-open devices follow the same door-by-door method and report format.
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 High Peak.

High Peak FAQs
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.
Do you cover the area around High Peak?
Yes. As well as High Peak itself we cover nearby towns including Buxton, Hyde and Hazel Grove.
Is it legal to wedge a fire door open?
Wedging a fire door open defeats it, because it cannot close in a fire, and it can breach fire safety law. If a door needs to stay open, use a device that releases it automatically when the alarm activates.
Which fire safety law applies in High Peak?
High Peak is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.
