A fire door is not a single part but a system of hardware working together. For the door to do its job during a fire, the leaf and frame plus the hinge, lock, panic bar, seal, threshold and every other accessory must all work in harmony. Each component carries out a specific task so the door self-closes, seals and operates safely. On this page you will find all the hardware and accessories that make up a Dimak fire door, what each component does, and links to the detailed technical pages.
Each item works as part of the whole. The door’s overall fire resistance performance and certification are determined by testing the complete system together. If you want to understand how the door works, start with our what is a fire door guide, and see fire door features for the key performance characteristics.
A panic bar (emergency exit device) lets people open the door from the inside in a single push, in the direction of egress, in occupied areas. You can review our panic hardware solutions under two headings: the single leaf panic hardware fire door and the double leaf panic hardware fire door. For frame options, see the full frame fire door page.
Dimak fire doors are built on a modular construction principle, so different hardware and accessory combinations can be configured per project. Alongside the standard hardware, project-specific optional accessories can be added. To learn about the production and installation process, see fire door installation, and keep hardware performing reliably with periodic maintenance and inspections.
A fire door consists of hardware such as a spring hinge, lock and cylinder, handle or knob, a panic bar where needed, seal, threshold, earthing strip and stopper. Together these components let the door work as a system.
On Dimak fire doors, self-closing is provided by the spring inside the hinge. In the standard configuration no separate door closer is required; a door closer can be specified additionally depending on project requirements.
Yes. In areas requiring emergency egress, a panic bar (emergency exit device) can be integrated into single-leaf or double-leaf fire doors.
Yes. With an electrical strike, a fire door can be integrated with access control systems such as card entry and remote release.
