Fire Door Hold-Open Devices in Beverley

We provide fire door hold-open devices for buildings in Beverley and the HU17 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

In short: 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.

Common questions in Beverley

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Beverley?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Beverley 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 Beverley?

Yes. As well as Beverley itself we cover nearby towns including Kingston upon Hull, Bridlington and Scunthorpe.

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.

How often should they be tested?

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