Dorgard Fire Door Hold Open Device: White

Wedging open fire doors is dangerous. Dorgard is a wireless solution that legally holds open fire doors, and enables them to close when the fire or smoke alarm sounds.

What is Dorgard?

Dorgard by Fireco is a wireless fire door retainer designed to enhance safety and convenience in buildings requiring fire doors. Installed in under five minutes at the base of a fire door, Dorgard allows doors to remain open during regular operation, improving ventilation and accessibility throughout the space. This is especially beneficial in offices, schools, healthcare facilities, and residential buildings where airflow and ease of movement are essential.

The device continuously listens for a sustained fire alarm signal of 14 seconds or more. Once detected, Dorgard automatically releases the door, allowing it to close and contain the spread of fire and smoke. This automatic response ensures compliance with fire safety regulations while reducing the need for manual door management. It’s a simple yet highly effective solution for maintaining safety without compromising comfort or access.

Dorgard is a trusted choice for building managers and safety professionals. Its wireless design eliminates the need for complex wiring or professional installation, allowing for quick deployment across multiple doors. By enabling fire doors to remain open safely, Dorgard supports inclusive access for individuals with mobility disability and contributes to more effective emergency evacuation planning.

Whether you’re upgrading your fire safety systems or seeking a way to improve building ventilation or access, Dorgard offers a reliable, user-friendly solution. It combines smart technology with practical design to deliver peace of mind and enhanced protection.
