Wire-Free Technology: Traditional fire safety systems often require complex and expensive hard-wiring. Dorgard needs to be positioned low enough that the ferrule makes good contact with the floor when the plunger is depressed. When the fire alarm sounds, Dorgard releases, enabling the fire door to close, preventing the spread of fire and smoke. Door holders are frequently installed in education and healthcare facilities including schools and hospitals, providing flexibility and accessibility.

The Dorgard Acoustic Fire Door Retainer is the safe, reliable and smart choice for fire door retaining problems. Instead of installing additional components to fire doors, there are door closers available which have retainer features built-in for convenience, such as Freedor They may have the ability to hold a door open at certain angles (Hold Open models) or to temporarily disengage their mechanical components so that fire doors feel as light as normal doors (Free Swing models).The user-friendly design ensures that you can effortlessly incorporate a wireless door retainer into your fire safety measures without unnecessary complications or delays. The different automatic night time release functions can be set using the dip switches on the back of the unit.

Manufactured in the UK and available in a variety of colours, Dorgard is the ideal solution to maintain safety within buildings. Both models require power to work, either wired into a power supply or fitted with batteries, and will "fail safe" during a power failure – meaning that electricity is used to disengage the closing force and by default they will try to keep the door closed when no power is supplied.Within the risk assessment for the building there should be an instruction that in the event of a failure in the fire alarm system, all door hold-open devices should be manually deactivated.
