Emphasizing Fire Door Safety with Vortex Doors

October 16, 2023 | Commercial Doors

Fire Door SafetyAs the autumn leaves change their colors, October brings more than just the beauty of fall. It’s the onset of Fire Safety Awareness Month, a crucial time to stress the significance of fire prevention and preparedness, especially when it comes to your business’s fire doors. 

At Vortex Doors, we take fire door safety to heart and we believe it’s essential to highlight the significance of Fire Prevention Week. Hosted by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), Fire Prevention Week is an annual event observed in the first week of October. This week-long campaign emphasizes the critical importance of fire prevention, preparedness, and education. It serves as a valuable complement to Fire Safety Awareness Month, reinforcing the message that proactive measures, such as maintaining fire doors and alarms, can save lives and protect property.

Given the crucial role fire doors play in fire safety, it is imperative that they undergo an annual inspection conducted by a certified and skilled technician. At Vortex Doors, we take the integrity of fire doors seriously, adhering to the NFPA 80 2022 Standards in our technician training. Our technicians meticulously examine all aspects of your rolling and swinging fire doors to guarantee their optimal performance during emergencies. The comprehensive inspection reports they provide offer a thorough overview of any non-compliant doors, empowering you to take immediate action to rectify any deficiencies and ensure your fire doors are fully compliant with safety regulations.

Vortex Doors offers expert services for inspecting, repairing, and replacing fire doors. Regular maintenance and inspections can help ensure that your fire doors are ready to safeguard lives and property in case of a fire emergency.

I manage an apartment building and recently, one of our exterior doors stopped latching properly. Called Vortex and they were great. They sent us a quote (an accurate quote) and within just a few days, a couple techs were out fixing the door. Mateo and RJ were awesome. They had the new latch installed in no time. They were also just super cool guys. Very communicative and professional. We will definitely use Vortex again!
