New Requirements for Annual Fire Door Inspections Properly operating fire doors help protect property and save lives in the event of any emergency. Defective, damaged or non-functional fire doors can lead to tragic results and may subject building owners and managers to catastrophic losses and increased legal liability. Recognizing the importance of fire doors in preserving life and property, the National Fire Protection Association recently began requiring annual inspections of all fire door assemblies, including swinging doors and builders’ hardware (NFPA 80, 2007). This change is highly significant to all building owners. Now, just like elevators, sprinkler systems and fire alarms, fire door openings must be inspected by a certified third-party to maintain NFPA compliance. NFPA 80's language in paragraph 5-2.1 requires fire door assemblies to be inspected 'not less than annually, and a written record of the inspection shall be signed and kept for inspection by the AHJ.'

Colorado Doorways, Inc. is proud to have been the sole supplier of doors, frames and architectural hardware for this environmentally responsible office building. Product NewsIves Announces Continuous Hinges Ives Continuous Hinges are designed to last the life of the building. The unique design distributes the weight of the door along the entire length of the frame, reducing the high amount of stress placed upon the top traditional butt hinge. Not only does this prevent hinge failure, it also keeps your door in constant alignment, eliminating the chance of door sag. These characteristics make continuous hinges suitable for high use/high traffic doors. The design of a continuous hinge eliminates the gap between the door and the frame. The absence of gap also prevents fingers from being pinched, making it a safer device than traditional hinges. These these benefits result in higher efficiency and less maintenance, maximizing the value of your opening investment. Ives offers to types of continuous hinges: Aluminum Geared Pin and Barrel For more details about about these new Ives hinges, click here for a document with more information then contact the experts at Colorado Doorways to learn more. |
