Guest Joe Posted February 14, 2023 Report Share Posted February 14, 2023 Hi has anyone seen this hold open device before. There is no information on it. It has been installed on a nominal FD30 door. Is it allowed if it’s only surface fitted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it should not be used on a fire door, as it's not linked to your active alarm system, it's manually operated.

Neil Ashdown MAFDI Posted February 18, 2023 Report Share Posted February 18, 2023 Not allowed because it fails to automatically release when the fire/smoke alarm is activated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
