 | | DORGARD PROVIDES SAFE SOLUTION AT SUTTON COLDFIELD COLLEGE | | | Fireco Ltd | | 15/01/2008 | | | Sutton Coldfield College is one of the largest and most successful colleges in the UK, providing first-class education and training for some 20,000 sixth form pupils and adult learners, including many disabled and wheelchair-bound students.
Because such a vast complex demands the highest standards of fire safety, the college has installed Dorgard fire door hold-open devices to enhance access for disabled students in busy areas throughout the campus buildings.
Dorgard is the wireless solution from Fireco Ltd. that offers the simplest and most cost-effective way of legally holding open fire doors in any position and automatically releasing them should the fire alarm sound. Dorgard offers significant cost advantages as it can be retrofitted in minutes, with no wiring required.
A spokesperson for the college said: 'Dorgard offered the best solution because no hard wiring was required, so there was no disruption for staff or students, and we did not have to take apart the fabric of the building. Dorgard's automatic night-time release facility means that we satisfy the requirements of our fire safety risk management guidelines.'
There are more than 250,000 installed across the UK, making the Dorgard range the accepted solution to the illegally wedged open fire door problem, in any environment. Dorgard complies fully with all relevant British Standards, EU Directives and UK Fire Regulations. | |
