Door Controls from Relcross

Door Control products from Relcross provide solutions to just about every commercial door control situation that may arise. Our door control products encompass a wide variety of types from door holders, coordinators & door closers through to low energy automatic operators.

Door Control Products - Why are they necessary?

Door control products are specified widely for use on commercial and public buildings to ensure security, fire and life safety obligations are adressed.

Door Closers -

The most common specification (and now a legal requirement - see Construction Products Regulation 2011) is for use on fire and smoke control doors. Door closers are also a vital part of any access control installation since doors must close and re-lock after every authorized operation - often used in conjunction with electro-magnetic locks and electric strikes.

Automatic Operators -

Conventional door closers are not always suitable for use on accessible routes and busy routes requiring an unhindered flow of pedestrian traffic. Automatic operators will provide the elderly, infirm and other users with a means to traverse an opening in a safe and comfortable manner.

Door Holders & Coordinators -

Door controls of this type are often ignored at the specification stage but will provide a complete solution at exposed doors (door holders) and a pairs of rebated fire/security doors (coordinators).

Door Control Products - Adding value

Door control products have been our business for over 35 years. During this time we have provided specifiers, designers, architectural ironmongers, contractors and end users with quality door control solutions backed by a sound understanding of applications, design, performance and certification requirements. We will consider any and all potential scenarios - however complex you may believe them to be. Often, it is a subject we have addressed previously and one for which we may have available a tried and tested solution.

Door Control Products - Where are we used?

Typically Relcross door control products are specified and installed in demanding situations where precise and accurate door control is a minimum requirement. Often, we step in where other products have failed to make the grade. Doors, particularly in public areas, can be subject to extreme use and abuse over tens of thousands of cycles. With the LCN 4000 series heavy duty door closer in our armoury we can specify the ultimate in mechanical door control, with confidence, knowing it will outperform and outlast all comparable products on the market anywhere in the world.

Door Control Design - A Powerful Case for Cast Iron

Cast Iron

There is no better material for a door closer than cast iron. The manufacturing process may be difficult (which is why just about every other closer manufacturer has turned to aluminium) but the end product lasts for decades. Since internal wear and tear is negligible, even after extreme usage, regular re-adjustment of control valves and spring power is not necessary.
