Fire door holders and closers

Fire door holders and closers can be placed to simplify access and passage. With adhesive magnets, doors can be held open in normal use and can be closed automatically in the event of a fire. The activation for the magnet to release the door is usually a signal from the fire panel. In the event of a fire, the fire panel will cut the power supply, removing the voltage from the magnet and releasing the door and closing it. Also, in the event of a power failure, the voltage of the magnet falls and therefore the door will also close.

The fire door holders from SenseTek are available in various designs. The wall-mounted versions are available in 4 different colors. In addition to the standard white version, these are also available in chrome, stainless steel and brass color. In addition to the 24Vdc versions that can be directly connected to a fire panel, SenseTek also supplies various door magnets in a 230Vac version. There is also a choice in the different adhesive force levels. Almost all types are equipped with an interrupt button to be able to close the door manually.

Agrippa acoustic door magnet

The Agrippa acoustic door magnet can easily learn the specific sound of the fire alarm in emergency situations and use it to close doors when that sound is heard. The deactivation works on the specific sound of the alarm but does not work on other sounds. This prevents doors from closing unnecessarily. This new development in door magnets works without wiring and therefore is easy to install, in both new constructions and existing projects. Thanks to the simple installation and commissioning, the Agrippa acoustic door magnets are suitable for many applications such as hotels, shopping centers, hospitals, cinemas and offices.
