Fire Door Hold-Open Devices in Cambuslang

From the G72 district outwards, we cover Cambuslang and neighbouring towns such as Rutherglen and East Kilbride 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 Cambuslang.

Fire Door Hold-Open Devices in Cambuslang: questions

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.

Does regulation 10 apply in Cambuslang?

No. Cambuslang is in Scotland, which has its own fire safety law. The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 cover workplaces, HMOs and other non-domestic premises; common parts of private blocks of flats are largely outside them.

Do you cover the area around Cambuslang?

Yes. As well as Cambuslang itself we cover nearby towns including Rutherglen, East Kilbride and Glasgow.

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.
