"Dorgards are a brilliantly simple yet effective solution to the problem of legally and safely holding open fire doors without compromising fire safety. In fact they’re so effective we’ve thrown all our door wedges away!" Ruth Winston Centre Manager Yvonne Quigley 

"The Dorgards not only assist with traffic flow of staff and pupils but ensure that fire safety is not compromised. Fitting was also very easy with no disruption, no unsightly and expensive wiring - an easy and convenient solution." Lancing College

"I have been using Fireco’s consultants for many years. Their attention to detail, professionalism and exceptional knowledge of fire safety has helped us achieve compliance with the legislation and praise from the Fire Service." Empress Lodge

"We have a maze of rooms and cosy little bars within the restaurant, also with kitchens on the first and second floors meaning there are lots of fire doors. We get very busy, so it’s vital customers and staff can move about easily. System X is the perfect solution as it allows us to keep our fire doors open safely and legally, throughout the building." Lion & Lobster

"In this busy environment it’s important for us to keep some fire doors open to ease access. without compromising fire safety guidelines. We’re delighted that the Dorgards have proved to be the perfect solution. Fitting was very easy with no disruption to the business, no unsightly and expensive wiring - an easy and convenient solution." Cheetahs Gym

"After evaluating a number of access solutions, we found that Dorgards offered an easy installation solution that avoided the need for disruption of the premises associated with fixed wire door closers, as the corridors are constantly in use. In our view, Dorgards represent a neat and effective answer to legally holding open fire doors that satisfies our fire safety risk management guidelines." Thurstable School

"The containment of the smoke was very effective, even though breathing apparatus had to be used by fire fighters for the complete evacuation. In the circumstances, the evacuation was effected smoothly, and the fast action of the Dorgards meant that our Emergency Plan was implemented according to the fire safety measures we had put in place." Freshfields Nursing Home

"The Dorgard hold-open units are installed on fire doors in our administration areas and also in a corridor to ease access and assist the circulation of fresh air. Dorgard solves the problem of the wedged door hazard very effectively whilst allowing us to comply with the latest fire safety regulations under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.  I can rest assured that the units will shut the door if the fire alarm is activated, while enjoying air circulation through a safely held open door into my office." Langton Medical Centre

"In most cases, Dorgards are installed on fire doors in busy administrative areas like corridors where there’s a lot of movement between offices. We are very aware of our responsibilities under new fire safety law such as ensuring that fire doors are not wedged open and exits not obstructed. The neatness of the Dorgard concept gets around this problem very effectively." Portsmouth Football Club

"Moveable, wire-free Deafgard’s unique advantage over competitor products is its cost-effectiveness and flexibility. When a deaf or hard of hearing guest checks into one of our hotels the Receptionist checks and shows the guest how to operate the Deafgard unit. The Deafgard unit accompanies the guest to his/her hotel room giving peace of mind should there be a fire emergency." Paramount Hotel Group

"We recently fitted your ‘Dorgards’ to six of our fire doors and we wish to compliment you on a great product. Firstly, they were well packaged with everything one could need (even the screws were a good make). The ‘fitting and operating guide was excellent and made them easy to fit. They also work perfectly with our alarm bells and we use one of the preset night release options." Canterbury Archaeological Trust Limited

"The Dorgards did a brilliant job in closing the fire door. The corridor concerned was compartmentalised as a fire zone so only five residents' room were affected. The Fire Inspector commended the activation of the Dorgards and following the Inspector’s recommendations, we intend to install units on all our resident’s doors, in addition to the corridor fire doors." Uplands Nursing Home

"Deafgard’ was selected rather than competitor products due to its cost-effectiveness and flexibility making it easier to move to other properties when required." Wales and West Housing Association (WWHA)
