Dorgard is a wireless solution for use in all commercial properties, schools, hospitals, care homes and other residential environments where unhindered access and/or ventilation is a requirement. Dorgard retainers facilitate improved airflow, contributing to enhanced ventilation and a more pleasant atmosphere within your facilities. The separate controller, ProHub, can be wired directly into any fire alarm system and allows you to monitor all door units from a central hub.

Should the noise level in your premises exceed 80 decibels it is unlikely that you would hear a 65 decibel alarm, therefore the Dorgard releases the fire door to close. Rest the supplied template on the floor and align the edge of the template with the edge of the door. The unit also carries out a self-test every 7 days, emitting an audible beep pattern if any faults are detected. It is recommended that fire doors are closed at night; therefore Dorgard has an automatic night-time release facility. The Dorgard acoustic retainer is manufactured to the highest industry standards, ensuring superior performance and reliability.

Installing the Dorgard fire door retainer is a hassle-free process that requires minimal effort and time. In under five minutes, you can securely attach a Dorgard to the bottom of the fire door, ready to provide reliable fire safety release.

In environments with extreme levels of background noise, such as sports stadiums or music venues, the noise levels may be high enough to completely drown out the sound of a fire alarm. Should the noise level in your premises exceed 80 decibels it is unlikely that you would hear a 65 decibel alarm; therefore the Dorgard releases the fire door to close.
