Leaf-and-a-half doors are a practical option for Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire & Moray care homes and schools that need occasional wide access.

Hold-opens and escape
Pairs on corridors are often held open in daily use, with hold-open devices releasing both leaves when the alarm sounds. Where a pair is on an escape route used by the public, the escape hardware and the direction of opening also need to suit the fire strategy.

Questions
Do you provide double fire doors across Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire & Moray?
Yes. We cover all of Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire & Moray, including Aberdeen and Elgin. Surveys and written quotes are free.
What does a door coordinator do?
It holds the leaf that must close second until the first leaf has shut, so rebated meeting edges close in the right order and both leaves latch. Without it, the pair can end up open or misaligned.
Why does the gap between the two leaves matter?
The meeting edges are where flame and smoke can pass most easily. The gap and the seals there must match the certification for the pair to perform as tested.
