Drop Bar System Designed for Fire Exits


From

£102.00 As Standard

Delivery starting @ £12.00

Lead Time: 3-5 Working Days

A fire exit is usually the most vulnerable point of entry into a building when it comes to a break in attempt. With this in mind Doors4Security have developed our own drop bar system which will improve security and also make any break in attempt much more difficult.

A drop bar system can be installed on either a single or double door centrally. In some instances where security is a real concern you can install a drop bar in both the upper and lower halves of the door.

The brackets are secured in a way that prevents them from being removed or tampered with from outside.

Our drop bar system consists of 2 heavy duty steel brackets and length of steel box section. This is designed to fit any of our frames. The drop bar is powder coated yellow with the brackets being supplied in black.

The length of box section can easily be removed when the door is in operation or placed in position to secure the door when not in use. If the drop bar system is fitted onto a fire exit door the length of box section would need to be removed when the door/building is in use to allow occupants to escape quickly in an emergency.

If you are using the proposed door for the main entry point into the building then a drop bar isn’t really suitable, this is because you would not be able to insert the box section from the inside and then lock/unlock the door from the outside.

FAQs

  • In stock single doors: The cylinder and key set is found in the top of the frame.
  • Double doors: The cylinder is placed in one of the handle boxes.
  • Fire exits: The keys are taped to the door or around the panic bar.

All our frames come supplied with side channels that are fitted around the outside of the frame. The side channels expand by winding out the fixing bolts which in turn push the side channels outwards allowing you to expand the frame between the two measurements.

All our doors are designed to open outwards which makes them more secure and weather-proof. If you require the door to open inwards you are required to install the frame the opposite way, this does have an effect on the security and weather-proof aspect of the door. We would recommend adding a rain drip to any inward opening doors being installed externally helping to prevent water ingress.

A blanking plate is a sheet of steel used to cover the handle fixing locations that are pre-cut into our multi-point locking door blades. These are only necessary if you don’t require a lever handle to be fitted, we offer these with or without key access.
