Guest SarahRidd Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Quick query: at my local Cricket Club we have a double set of fire doors that we need to use for access from the outside and egress from inside, but players are leaving the door open as there is no closer - therefore causing a security issue. What fire door closers can we install to make sure that the doors close in sequence and latch? Can we vary speed and force?

Tom Sutton Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 A overhead fire door closer and door coordinator device (also known as a door selector) also yes they can be adjusted.

Guest Robbi Posted July 6, 2015 Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 I NEED TO HAVE ONE SIDE OF DOUBLE SWING DOORS FITTED AT A WORKPLACE THROUGH TO A FRONT LOBBY, WILL A MEDIUM DUTY FIRE-DOOR CLOSER DO? The other side is already fitted with a working door closer and looks like a light to medium duty one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sutton Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Door closers are designated according to BS EN 1154 1997 and the door width and mass in Kg defines the power size, also needed, is it a fire door. Consequently you need to know the width, mass and is the door a fire door to determine the power size required. Most retailers should be able to provide the test certificate and using the BS EN 1154 you can determine the power size required. The third digit defines the power size and can be two digits, from to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sutton Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Further to the above a simpler way to determine the power size required by EN power size. Check out http://www.safelincs.co.uk/overhead-door-closers/ for more information. P.S. If the centre stile of the doors are rebated you will need a door selector as well.
