The Building Academy | Fire and Escape Doors

About this course

Here we take a step away from products that are fitted to doors to look at doors themselves. In particular, we want you to understand the difference between a fire door and an escape door. The two terms are quite distinct so it important for you to understand the difference before we talk about the hardware that is appropriate for each.
