Architects and designers looking to retain the aesthetics of doors and interiors invariably opt for concealed door closers. The concealment that these closers offer can also make a significant contribution towards reliable fire safety.

With fire safety high on the agenda for designers and owners of high-rise apartments and flats in private and social housing arenas, choosing the right door closer has never been more important.

Powermatic door closers carry the CE mark and have been independently tested and proved to meet the requirements for 60-minute and 30-minute fire doors under BS EN 1634-1. They also benefit from full third-party certification and are the only Certifire jamb-mounted door closer.

Concealment also reduces the opportunity for the door closer to be vandalised or tampered with, improving the reliability of the door to close when needed. 

Unlike other jamb-mounted devices, Powermatic door closers facilitate a door's compliance with the accessibility requirements of Approved Document M and do not have to be removed to be adjusted.
