How Dorgard X Works

How Dorgard X Works


Dorgard X is activated by a System X Transmitter unit which is either in its Acoustically Linked or Hardwired Mode. When Dorgard X receives a signal from the System X Transmitter, the Dorgard X will release the fire doors preventing the spread of fire and smoke.

Any number of Dorgard X units can be linked to any one System X Transmitter unit within range, although a site survey must be carried out prior to installation. 


Operating Dorgard X


To hold the door open:


  • Open the door to the required ‘hold open’ position, or open fully against the bump stop of the floor plate (if fitted) 
  • Stand sideways to the door 
  • Press the black knob down using your foot. Greater foot pressure may be needed depending upon force from the door closer or the type of floor surface 
  • Whilst depressing the black knob pull the door gently in the direction of closing 
  • Remove your foot and let go of the door 


To release Dorgard X manually:


  • Lightly kick the black knob toward the door 
  • Or push the door in the direction of opening
