IRONMONGERYDIRECT LAUNCHES FIRE DOOR SAFETY CHECKLIST


IronmongeryDirect, the online and mail order supplier of ironmongery products, has launched a fire door safety checklist to equip professionals with the knowledge they need to ensure a fire door remains in good working order.


The detailed checklist informs tradespeople on everything they need


ITALIAN STYLE


ARRIVES AT ARCO Arco has introduced a new range of five Italian-made safety boots and shoes to its TROJAN® brand.


Designed to meet Arco’s exacting standards, the range puts style on a par with the safety and comfort features that buyers expect from a trusted brand. The footwear has been extensively tested in Arco’s own laboratories and the heavy-duty boots have been proven in the field through extensive trials by meter readers from a large energy utility supplier.


Around 40% of reported major injuries at work are caused by slips and trips, and ill-fitting or uncomfortable footwear can also cause damage and fatigue. Arco also noticed UK wearers are more demanding of their boots’ appearance than elsewhere in the world, so now there is no compromise on style or safety.


The heavy-duty boot is the 6P7500 TROJAN® Minotaur Black Safety Boot (£94.99). This water resistant boot is for those working in heavy industrial and hazardous outdoor environments: factories, offshore rigs, building sites, meter reading and heavy goods deliveries. It is designed to overcome known problems with traditional lace fastenings, which lead to inconsistent support, high replacement rates, and inability to wear slippage-resistant boots in normal conditions.


The boot features steel toe caps and a sole which provides 200% increased resistance against sheet ice and still allows wearers to walk easily on

to consider when they have been tasked with installing or maintaining a fire door. From intumescent seals to hinges, locks, latches and door closers, the handy guide covers all of the essential components required to make a fire door fully operational and therefore compliant.


With too many fire doors still being propped open illegally using unsafe equipment, the guide also focuses on the importance of installing and maintaining safe fire door holders, such


as those in the Dorgard range, which are accepted for use by fire authorities.


The easy-to-use checklist helps tradesmen to understand what they should check for to guarantee the door and its accompanying hardware will work properly. It aims to make installing and maintaining fire doors more straightforward, and can be used as a quick reference guide when tradesmen are working on a property.

normal surfaces. The innovative Boa® lace system means no tying laces, consistent ankle support and quick release for easy removal. In the field trials, it delivered a marked reduction in ankle and wrist injuries caused by slipping during the winter months.


The active boot is the 6T1600 TROJAN® Skater Black/Grey Boot (£64.99), which is a high-top lightweight sneaker. It has a nubuck leather upper that looks good and works hard. Its aluminium toecaps and composite midsoles make this product lightweight and comfortable. Antibacterial fabric footbeds keep feet fresh, while flat PU/TPU sole units provide excellent slip resistance. The boots are anti-static


and provide 200 joule EN ISO 20345 steel toe protection.


The 6T1000 TROJAN® Poseidon Black Safety Boot (£64.99) is a heavy-duty boot featuring IDROTECH® water-resistant full grain black waxy leather, soft TPU heel stabiliser and bump cap for longer use, and 200 joule EN ISO 20345.


The TROJAN® Tank Black Safety Boot (£56.99) is a heavy-duty, water- resistant hiker-style boot with soft TPU heel stabiliser and steel toecap.


The TROJAN® Cronos Black Safety Shoe (£59.99) also provides heavy- duty safety with IDROTECH® water- resistant waxy black leather, soft TPU heel stabiliser and steel toecap.
