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.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Excellent
John
Just want to take a minute and thank our install Technician Wes w/ Vortex doors. A true professional who installed keyless system for our office. Wes did an exceptional job and meticulously ensured that he left our front lobby cleaner than when he arrived. Could not be happier with this portion of the install!
Eric G.
Irving and Dymitry were AMAZING!!! Payed attention to detail and noticed that the door was not fully aligned and they took their time to align is without us mentioning. Only reason I point this level of attention is due to having many other vortex technicians come out and just do what they had to do and leave. Knowing that they were going to get paid regardless. They also both had GREAT communication skills as well as their customer service!!

Vortex Doors does quality work. Pricing is fair. Communication is excellent. They do a good job of making sure they have all the necessary information when coming out in advance of starting the job, then send multiple updates while waiting for parts. We have had rollup door repairs and new rollup installations and a standard steel door installed and all are still working great. I would recommend Vortex for industrial door services.

Thank you for sending out Paz and Craig to the site. They were super courteous and professional.

Update: Ismael and Erick were here today and were super courteous and very thorough with all the work orders. Thanks Vortex for sending these amazing techs.

Eric and Ismael were super kind and efficient. Another company installed a door at our warehouse, poorly, which caused us to shut our business down for a few hours. We called Vortex to come and fix the door for us, within an hour they were here and these guys knew what they were doing, fixed all the issues, and got us back in business quickly.
I really appreciate the professionalism, efficiency and knowledge.

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!

Chris Gomez came out to our United health group facility today and promptly diagnosed the issue with our roll up door. He was polite, communicative and very professional. Hey got the parts ordered and hopefully they send him back out to put in the part.
