Fire doors are critical components in any facility’s safety plan, and the church required adjustments, repairs, and a replacement to ensure proper functionality and compliance with fire safety regulations.
Scope of Work
The IOS team carried out a thorough assessment and executed the following key tasks:
- Vertical Rod Panic Hardware Adjustment
The vertical rod panic system on a pair of fire doors was adjusted to ensure smooth operation and alignment. This essential hardware was fine-tuned to facilitate seamless emergency exit use and comply with safety standards. - Door Closer Adjustments
Multiple fire doors required adjustments to their door closers to guarantee secure closure within the mandated time frame. Each closer was tested and calibrated to meet fire safety requirements while maintaining ease of use. - Hinge Shimming
To enhance functionality and alignment, hinges on select doors were shimmed, ensuring proper positioning and smooth operation. - Door Replacement Assessment
A broken fire door was evaluated and identified for replacement, ensuring the facility maintained its full complement of functional fire doors to meet safety standards.

Through these repairs and adjustments, IOS ensured that the church’s fire doors operated seamlessly and adhered to all fire safety regulations.
