Swing into action

Freedor from Fireco is a new
ergonomic solution for holding fire
doors open safely and legally whilst
enabling improved access. A wireless
device that is installed at the top of a
fire door, Freedor allows the door to
swing freely and be left in any
position, but closes the door when the
fire alarm sounds.

Freedor listens for a fire alarm that
exceeds 65dBA, verifying the alarm
over a 14 second period, before
releasing the fire door to prevent the
spread of fire and smoke around the
building.

The system has adjustable closing
speed and is capable of operating fire
doors up to power size 4 weighing
80kg. Suitable for right and left hand
doors, it has a minimum battery life
of 12-18 months.
