Double fire doors in Feltham, done to the evidence
Our double fire doors service in Feltham is simple: a survey, a fixed quote, certified products and an installation finished to the manufacturer's evidence.
In and around Feltham, fire door work covers everything from purpose-built blocks of flats to care homes. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Leaf-and-a-half doors are a practical option for Feltham care homes and schools that need occasional wide access. Double doors on wards, school corridors and lobbies in Feltham take heavy use, so closing sequence and meeting-edge seals get extra attention.
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.
Each installation includes:
- Equal pair or leaf-and-a-half doorsets
- Commissioning of closing sequence
- Closers matched to each leaf
- Door coordinators where meeting edges are rebated
