Products include emergency escape mechanisms such as panic latches and Crash Bars, Redlam bolts and other emergency escape mechanisms which incorporate breakable elements to permit emergency release of a fire exit door.
It is a basic requirement that any such mechanism must be operable from the inside without the use of a key.
Because such escape mechanisms can compromise security, Fixfire® offers a range of deadlocking solutions in order to ensure that perimeter fire exit doors remain secure whilst complying internally with “means of escape” requirements.
A wide range of mechanisms are held in stock as well as replacement frangible elements such as glass and ceramic tubes for the Redlam Bolt and plastic domes for covered “thumb turns”.

British Standard Design requirements...
- Install AFD to voids greater than 800mm
- Treat downward projections exceeding 10% of the void depth as wall
BS5839-Part 1:2013 states:
22.2d) If the system Category is such that automatic fire detection should be provided in any area that contains a horizontal void of 800 mm or more in height, automatic fire detection should also be provided in the void.
22.3j) Ceiling obstructions, such as structural beams, deeper than 10% of the overall ceiling height should be treated as walls [see Figure 10a)]. NOTE 10 Within horizontal voids, beams or obstructions that are deeper than 10% of the overall depth of the void regardless of whether the void is above the ceiling or below the floor, ought to be treated as walls that subdivide the void.
