Fire Door Hold-Open Devices in Maesteg

We provide fire door hold-open devices for buildings in Maesteg and the CF34 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

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 Maesteg.

Common questions in Maesteg

How often should they be tested?

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

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Maesteg?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.

Does regulation 10 apply in Maesteg?

No. Maesteg is in Wales and regulation 10 is English law. The Fire Safety Order 2005 still requires fire doors to be maintained, and many Welsh landlords follow the same quarterly and annual routine as good practice.

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.
