Bowling over Sussex CCC
In order to keep fire doors open safely and legally, whilst allowing customers and staff to move about easily, Sussex County Cricket Club (CCC) has installed Dorgard wireless fire door retainers at the club's Indoor Cricket School.
Dorgard enables fire doors to be legally and safely kept open as it allows the door to close when the fire alarm sounds, preventing the spread of fire and smoke. Installed onto the bottom of the fire door in under 5 minutes, Dorgard listens for a continuous fire alarm of 65dBA or higher.
Features include: Wireless unit with fail-to-safe technology, Improved access throughout buildings in line with the Equality Act 2010, Compliance with BS EN 1155 and acceptance by the fire and rescue service. The doors are available in a variety of colours and finishes, with an automatic night-time release facility, and comply with BS 7273-4 category C.
