Manual Fire-Rated
Fire-Rated Manual Operators
Manual Operators are great for smaller door applications or perhaps where a door is not used frequently. They can be great for cost savings, and are as robust and reliable as a motor operated door.
AlarmGard™ Chain or Crank
For use on fire doors, insulated fire doors and counter fire doors. Automatically closes fire doors during building alarm, smoke detector activation or power failure. Rate of descent will not exceed 12" per second. External releasing devices are not required, eliminating costly wiring. Can be retrofitted to most manufacturers' existing fire doors.
Options:
Can use 120 Volt AC, 24 Volt AC or 24 Volt DC Power from an external source or central alarm system. Optional battery backup can hold the door in the open position for up to 8 hours, preventing unwanted drops due to temporary
power outages. It can also be used to power local detectors.
FireGard™ Chain or Crank

Fire door system closing is activated by melting of fusible link. Maximum closing system speed of 12" per second. System reset procedure is to replace and reset fusible link.
