Fire door hold-open devices in Pudsey

Fire door hold-open devices in Pudsey, done to the evidence

For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Pudsey, we offer fire door hold-open devices with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.

Buildings in and around Pudsey range from family homes after loft conversions to small blocks of flats and schools. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.

Free-swing closers suit Pudsey settings where residents or pupils find doors hard to open. Where doors in Pudsey care homes, schools or offices are being wedged open, a hold-open device is the safe fix.

Why doors get wedged

Busy corridors, care homes and schools have doors that people need open all day. If there is no safe way to hold them, they get wedged, which defeats the door completely. A hold-open device or free-swing closer solves the problem properly.

What you get:

• Record of devices and test results
• Release testing with the alarm
• Electromagnetic holders to BS EN 1155
• Coordination of alarm interface

Which fire door rules apply in Pudsey?

In Pudsey, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet.

Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Pudsey building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.

Where fire door hold-open devices fit in Pudsey

From clinics to communal corridors, the requirement for fire door hold-open devices in Pudsey comes from the fire strategy or risk assessment for the building. We work from that document, or help you interpret your inspection report, before quoting.
