The Floor Plate is to be used with the Dorgard and can be Fitted using the 4 Supplied Screws.
Why use a Floor Plate
Fire doors weighing more than 120Kg, which have a closing force in excess of 120nm (that is a force of about 15kg, 800mm from the hinge) must have the Floor plate installed in order for Dorgard to Function Effectively. Dorgards can hold a fire door open safely without the floor plate, if the fire doors weight and closing force are less than that above.
The Floor Plate Should also be installed if:
Your fire door has a powerful overhead door closer and the fire door still creeps closed with Dorgard Fitted.
The floor is slippery very smooth and a fitted Dorgard tends to slip closed.
