Fire Door Hold-Open Devices in Greenock, Renfrewshire & Inverclyde: every door logged, photographed and graded, with a clear price for anything that needs putting right.

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 Greenock.

Fire Door Hold-Open Devices in Greenock: questions

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.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Greenock?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Greenock can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.

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.

Which fire safety law applies in Greenock?

In Scotland, fire safety duties for workplaces, HMOs and other non-domestic premises come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, with new work designed to the Scottish building standards.
