Description
MK2 Fire Door Selector CE Marked
Managing public and commercial spaces requires absolute certainty that safety features operate exactly as intended during a fire emergency. A pair of self closing fire doors creates a unique mechanical challenge because rebated meeting stiles often prevent doors from latching if they close in the wrong sequence. This selector prevents such failures by holding the inactive leaf open until the active leaf has completely closed, which guarantees that both doors latch properly every single time.
This British made device provides a discreet yet powerful solution to the common problem of human error in fire safety protocols. Measuring just 15cm by 10cm, the unit integrates into your door frame without disrupting the visual character of your building interior. You receive a high grade component that stands up to the heavy daily traffic seen in busy offices, schools, and healthcare facilities while maintaining the structural integrity of your fire seals.
Why Choose the MK2 Fire Door Selector CE Marked
This unit offers a highly reliable mechanical sequence control system that removes the risk of incorrectly closing rebated fire doors.
Precision Sequence Control
The device forces the inactive door leaf to stay open until the active leaf closes first. This mechanical coordination ensures that your rebated fire doors latch tightly every time, which preserves the fire resistant integrity of your seal and keeps your building compliant with local fire regulations for high traffic public exit routes.
Universal Configuration Compatibility
Engineered to suit a wide range of door sets, this selector works perfectly with timber, steel, or metal door configurations. Whether you manage a brand new installation or are upgrading older escape routes, the design adapts to your current hardware environment so that you achieve consistent safety across all your building zones.
Long Term Operational Security
You get an investment backed by a ten year guarantee because the construction materials are chosen specifically for high usage environments. By opting for this hardware, you avoid the common issues where lower quality selectors bend or lose calibration, which saves your facility team from constant repairs or failed safety inspections.
Engineering Quality and Daily Performance
Expert design choices define this selector as a high performance piece of hardware for demanding commercial applications.
Mechanical Sequence Internal Design
The internal mechanism operates on a simple principle of force distribution that manages leaves up to 1000mm in width. Because the system includes a standard surface mounted rebate catch, you can easily handle both rebated and flush doors without needing complex adjustments, which simplifies the workload for your onsite maintenance personnel every day.
We focus on a design that stays clear of obstructions, so your staff can move heavy equipment through the doorways without catching or damaging the selector arm. This mechanical reliability means you spend less time tweaking your fire hardware and more time managing your facility, which improves the overall efficiency of your operations.
Durability and Thermal Endurance
High grade impact plates form the core of the arm assembly to resist the wear associated with thousands of open and close cycles. This choice of materials keeps the calibration stable even under the stress of heavy traffic, so your safety hardware continues to function exactly as it did on the day of installation.
Testing confirms that the unit maintains its mechanical function under extreme thermal conditions, which helps your fire doors hold their shape when exposed to heat. By selecting this hardware, you secure your doors against the failure points that often plague inferior units, which protects your property and the occupants within it.
Installation and Operational Workflow
A straightforward setup process allows your maintenance team to install and calibrate the unit with minimal downtime to your daily activities.
Secure Mounting
Position the selector base accurately on the top frame of your door set, ensuring you use the provided fixing screws to achieve a firm grip on timber or steel surfaces. A tight initial fit prevents movement during operation, which stops the arm from shifting over the long lifespan of the hardware.
Arm Calibration
Connect the lift arm to the unit and test the swing of both door leaves to confirm the sequence works correctly. You can detach the arm easily for future servicing, which saves time for your team because they do not need to disassemble the entire unit to perform routine door inspections.
Final Operational Check
Verify that your door closer sizing is set between 3 and 5 to match the specific weight of your leaves. Once set, the selector holds the inactive leaf with precision until the active door has latched, which completes your setup process and leaves your fire doors ready for daily use.
Expert Installation and Care Tip
Check the arm connection during your quarterly fire door audits to confirm the sequence remains perfectly timed for your specific traffic volume. Keeping these connections tight will ensure the hardware maintains its precision over many years of heavy service.
