Dorgard wireless fire door retainers have been chosen by leading care home operator Hythe Care Homes to protect staff and residents at the company’s three homes located in the delightful Cinque Ports town of Hythe in Kent.
The Care Home Group offers the highest standards of nursing care to their elderly clientele, with safety and access a priority. Spokesman Phil Barker says that Dorgard is a brilliantly simple yet effective solution to the problem of legally and safely holding open fire doors without compromising fire safety. ‘Residents can now have their bedroom doors open so they don’t feel shut in plus we can hold open fire doors to kitchens, admin offices, staff rooms to improve access’.
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.
