Access control and hold-opens
Modern offices and hotels often combine fire doors with access control, electric locks and hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm. Electric locking on an escape route has to release safely, and any holes, cables and devices in the door must be covered by the evidence. We coordinate with your security and fire alarm contractors on the interfaces.
As standard, the work covers:
- Doorsets with veneer, laminate or paint finishes
- Glazed and solid options to certification
- Out-of-hours and phased working
- Hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm
