Fire Door Hold-Open Devices in Willenhall

Looking for a fire door hold-open device in Willenhall? We inspect, repair and replace fire doors across Willenhall and surrounding parts of the West Midlands, 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 Willenhall.

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

Willenhall is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

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.
