In addition to meeting all relevant fire and accessibility requirements, Powermatic door closers from Samuel Heath offer care and nursing homes a number of advantages over standard, surface mounted door closers thanks to the fact that they are totally concealed when the door is closed. Concealment ensures that the appearance of doors and interiors is not spoiled by the unsightly control arms and boxes that are a feature of ordinary door closers, helping to create a more homely, less institutionalised environment. Of particular interest to the care and nursing home sectors will be Powermatic Free Swing which possesses all of the performance and operational benefits of the standard version, but also allows doors to be operated normally, with no added resistance to access, and left open as desired. Free Swing is connected to the building’s low voltage fire alarm system. A simple setting procedure allows the door to remain in manual operation until the fire alarm is activated, or there is a power failure, when the inactive door closer becomes active and the door is closed automatically at a controlled rate. Powermatic is available in two versions; standard and Free Swing. They are maintenance-free and have been tested to in excess of 500,000 closing cycles. Their reliability is backed by a manufacturer’s 10-year guarantee.
