Fire protection doors are crucial elements when it comes to the safety of buildings.
They are used to prevent the spread of fire and smoke through large wall openings in the event of a fire, thereby protecting human life. To ensure that these vital doors always function perfectly, regular maintenance of fire doors is essential.
Maintenance of fire protection doors
In accordance with legal regulations, every fire door must undergo a safety inspection and maintenance by an expert at least every 12 months. Fire door maintenance not only ensures safety, but also the durability and reliability of the doors.
Regular maintenance of fire protection doors is required:
- DIN 14677
- ASR A1.7
- DGUV
- DIBt guidelines
Important: Wedging is prohibited
Fire doors must not be wedged or kept open. They must always be self-closing so that they can close automatically in the event of a fire. This means that deliberately keeping them open is negligent from a legal perspective and therefore even punishable by law.
