Freedor swings into action

According to Fireco, its Freedor is the new, ergonomic solution for holding fire doors open safely and legally while enabling improved access. It is a wireless device that is installed at the top of a fire door, allowing the door to swing freely, to be left in any position, but closing the door when the fire alarm sounds. It listens for a fire alarm that exceeds 65dBA, verifying the alarm over a 14 second period, before releasing the fire door to prevent the spread of fire and smoke around the building.

Features include: Adjustable closing speed; operates up to power size 4 (80kg fire door); allows the door to be set at any angle up to 90 degrees and operate normally until activated; suitable for right and left hand swing doors; can be installed on the opening or closing side of the door. Night-time release facility; fail-to-safe technology, with a minimum battery life of 12-18 months. Adjustable sensitivity. Designed to comply with BS EN 1154, BS EN 1155, BS 7273-4 category C, CE marked.
