FIRE DOOR HARDWARE TRAINING, DEMOS AND COMPETITIONS: WHAT TO EXPECT FROM ALLEGION UK AT THE FIRE SAFETY EVENT 2026
Allegion’s
team of fire door safety experts will span two exhibition stands at this year’s
Fire Safety Event, 4/E90 and 4/F20. At stand 4/E90, visitors can explore a comprehensive
portfolio of precision-engineered solutions, with a series of working door
displays and live demonstrations highlighting how Allegion’s security, hardware
and door control products operate as part of a complete and compliant fire door
assembly. Throughout the three day event, Allegion’s experts will provide
practical, on-the-spot guidance and advice for its range of tested and
certified hardware solutions, suitable for timber, steel and composite fire
doors.
Amongst
the featured products on stand 4/E90 will be the new Boss electromagnetic hold-open
cam-action door closer. Designed to integrate
into the alarm system of modern buildings, it provides effortless accessibility,
free movement and life safety compliance. Other stand highlights include the
fire-rated FinProtect Plus finger protection guards, used to safeguard fingers on
the hanging side of doors, and the Zero International Drop Seal, an automatic
drop seal mechanism that automatically lowers and raises the seal when the door
is operated. In addition, Allegion will demonstrate its widely used Briton and
Von Duprin panic and emergency exit hardware ranges.
Allegion
is also inviting visitors to stand 4/F20, where a dedicated team will provide
support on fire door safety best practice and compliance, and introduce accredited
practical fire door training courses from Fire Door Maintenance (FDM) for professionals
looking to upskill and develop key areas of their knowledge.
Alongside
product demonstrations, Allegion is also running a competition, offering visitors
the chance to win a free one-day accredited training course at its
state-of-the-art FDM training centre. To enter, participants must correctly
identify the faults found on an on-stand fire door display. One winner will be
drawn each day of the event and may attend their chosen course on a date of
their choice.
Speaking
on their presence at this year’s event, Pete Hancox, country manager at
Allegion UK, commented:
