DoorSense provides a safe and legal way to hold open fire doors, improving access around a building.

If the fire alarm sounds, DoorSense automatically releases to let the door close.* It is quick and easy to install with no secondary installation costs, such as electrical wiring, and retrofits existing products. CE marked to EN 1155, EMC tested, and fire rated for timber doors (FD120), legally allows fire doors to be held open for easier access and sound tested over 50,000 times beyond legal standards, so you can depend on it working.

*A separate door closer must be installed. It is recommended DoorSense is used in conjunction with a professionally installed fire alarm system.

HOW IT WORKS

DoorSense is a standalone, battery-powered unit which can be fixed to a door in seconds to provide a reliable way to keep it open, and automatically release it if the fire alarm sounds. DoorSense is designed to react to a continuous sound of over 65dB when heard for at least 15 seconds.

HOW TO FIT

DoorSense is incredibly easy to install, needing no wiring or specialist skills - just use the fixing template provided. DoorSense can even be retrofitted to doors using older door release mechanisms.

Once installed you can activate DoorSense working manually, using either the foot release or gently pushing the door open wider or automatically using the pre-set timer release.
