Fire Door Hold-Open Devices in Selby

Looking for a fire door hold-open device in Selby? We inspect, repair and replace fire doors across Selby and surrounding parts of North Yorkshire, with a door-by-door report and every remedial item priced separately.

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 Selby.

Fire Door Hold-Open Devices in Selby: 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.

Can you price remedial work in Selby from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Selby, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Selby?

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

Can hold-open devices be used on flat entrance doors?

Generally not on flat entrance doors in residential blocks. They are mainly used on corridor and cross-corridor doors in other buildings, subject to the fire risk assessment.
