2 protecting against smoke and fire

3 Fire and smoke protection measures are an essential, lifesaving precaution in a building. What s more, they protect the property from the devastating consequences of the fire itself, and the damaging effects of hot and cold smoke. So it s essential to get the product selection right, every time. Lorient has a respected reputation for designing and manufacturing a wide range of products for fire and smoke containment. Products are also designed with acoustic, thermal and weather containment in mind, as well as accessibility so you can be assured that a Lorient system provides an integrated, cost-effective solution. With 35 years experience and accumulated knowledge, we pride ourselves on offering ground-breaking innovations, underpinned by technical excellence and exceptional quality. Our dedicated R&D centre not only generates successful product developments for Lorient; it also allows us to work in partnership with customers to develop and test their own products too. Our indicative fire test furnace is particularly popular, giving customers real insight into their own products performance and helping to save substantial testing costs. Always keen to keep raising the bar, we are committed to gaining third party certification for our products wherever a suitable scheme exists. Many products hold CERTIFIRE certification, and we also hold approvals from both the BBA and IFC. We embrace the highest management standards too, and hold both BS EN ISO 9001:2008 and BS EN ISO 14001:2004 certificates for our quality and environmental management systems. Achieving ISO is just one part of our ongoing commitment to operate in a sustainable way: many initiatives are planned and already underway to reduce materials and energy usage, as well as waste. In addition to our UK and Europe head office, we have a number of operations around the world; in North America, Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia. Furthermore, we have strong links in India and the Middle East, which means that we re able to deliver the right solutions locally to our customers throughout the world. By keeping abreast of technical developments and changes to codes, regulations and standards across the continents, we can ensure we re always providing the highest level of expertise. From advice to testing, new product development to manufacture we work best in partnership with you.

4 Fire and Smoke Life Threatening Forces On average 311 people are killed and 11,100 are injured* in fires each year in the UK alone. Many of the casualties are attributable to breathing the toxic products of combustion from a remote fire. Fire and smoke also cause extensive damage to building fabric and contents billion* per annum is the estimated total of fire-related losses. The majority of these deaths, injuries and losses occur in buildings where fire and smoke protection measures have been inadequate. Design Needs and Regulatory Requirements When fire breaks out in a building the threat is twofold. Firstly, there is the fire itself and the hot smoke generated in the immediate vicinity. Secondly, there is cold smoke which will spread rapidly through the building, threatening people and property some distance from the fire. The Building Regulations take both these threats into account, and supporting documents give criteria for how they can be managed. Details can be found in Approved Document B (England & Wales), Technical Booklet E (N Ireland), and Technical Handbook Section 2 (Scotland). The Regulations require large buildings to be divided into smaller fire and smoke resistant compartments, to reduce the risk of damage to the building as a whole and also to save lives in the case of a fire. Building a fire resistant wall or floor to make a compartment is relatively simple. However, building design becomes much more complex when the compartments need to be linked in some way essential to make the building usable. Every time an aperture is cut into one of the compartment boundaries (for example, to install a door in a fire resistant wall, or to pass ductwork through a wall or ceiling) the aperture must be filled with something that will preserve the fire and smoke integrity of the compartment. That s the role of Lorient s products to work with the surrounding elements of the building to ensure the fire and smoke resistant compartments are maintained. Our fire and smoke seals can be fitted into fire rated doors; our glazing products can be fitted into doors, screens or fire rated partitions; our air transfer grilles can be installed into doors, walls and ducts. Fire and smoke protection products must be tested to prove their performance and indeed, separate tests are required for fire and smoke. Our products are all extensively tested, and our test reports are freely available on request. Just call our Technical Services team on Fire Resistant Door Hardware Fire rated doors often need additional items of hardware installed to make them work locks, letterplates, door closers, security viewers as well as products to protect them from damage. This brochure shows our products that can safely be installed into fire rated doors, without compromising the fire and smoke integrity of the doorset. Featured products include: a range of door hardware items which offer security and protection against smoke and fire; universal intumescent protection kits available for door closers and other ironmongery items; durable door leaf edge protectors with built-in acoustic, smoke and fire seals.

8 Letterplates Doors from common passageways to flats, apartments and offices are frequently required to be fire and smoke resistant. They may also need to be fitted with a letterplate. Fitting a normal letterplate assembly would completely negate the fire and smoke resisting properties of a door. We supply two fire and smoke resistant letterplate models. Our integrated fire/security letterplate can be fitted with a range of optional security devices. Lorient fire and smoke resistant letterplates: provide protection against fire and smoke at all temperatures when fitted to previously tested door sets; provide protection against cold smoke in line with the requirements of BS 9999: 2008 and Approved Document B to the Building Regulations. 6 SPECIALISED FIRE RESISTANT DOOR HARDWARE

13 Intumescent Protection Kits Hinge Protection Kits We supply intumescent protection kits for commonly specified hinges. These kits provide fire resistance of 30 minutes or 60 minutes when fitted to full size door assemblies and tested in accordance with BS EN 1363: Pt. 1: All door furniture must be fitted in a way which ensures the fire resisting properties of a door aren t compromised. In many instances it s advised that ironmongery is bedded in intumescent mastic or paste. A quicker, easier, cleaner and more accurate solution is to use shaped pads of intumescent material. We offer a range of kits designed for use with: hinges; locks and latches; Lock and Latch Protection Kits If the lock or latch of a fire resistant door is unprotected, it inevitably reduces the door s fire protection performance. Lorient provides a universal lock kit which enables family groups of mortise locks to be incorporated in fire resistant door leaves, as well as a lock kit which is available to suit larger lock sizes. These kits provide fire resistance of 30 minutes or 60 minutes when fitted to full size door assemblies and tested in accordance with BS EN 1363: Pt. 1: concealed hydraulic door closers (see page 12).

14 Concealed Door Closer Protection Kits Hydraulic closers concealed in the door leaf are increasingly popular but they must not be fitted to fire resistant doors without appropriate protective measures being taken. This is because: Partition wall they require a large portion of the door to be cut away which immediately reduces fire resistance; Frame head many models contain flammable hydraulic oil; the aluminium housings are likely to melt in intense heat leading to a breach; they are made from materials which are very good heat conductors and take up much of the available door leaf thickness. Our intumescent protection kits overcome these problems. They consist of a thin, high performance intumescent sheet, pre-cut and scored so that they can be easily fitted around door closers. The kits are self-adhesive for straightforward installation. When tested in accordance with BS 476: Pt. 20/22: 1987 it was shown that our closer protection kits can provide up to 60 minutes protection, even on 44mm thickness door leaves. The low pressure intumescent action ensures the door leaf is not split. Insulation against heat transfer is provided as soon as the intumescent material is activated.

16 Continuing Professional Development Seminars We offer three fully-accredited CPD seminars. Impartially presented by knowledgeable speakers, the seminars are structured to be technically informative, and give practical advice. Performance Door Design: The Basics of Sound Reduction Effective acoustic containment helps to improve the quality of the built environment, preserving privacy as well as excluding unwanted noise. With changing regulations, it s essential to be informed of the relevant requirements and the implications for door assemblies. Our acoustic CPD seminar covers: the nature of sound, examining airborne transmission of sound; regulatory requirements and British Standards that relate to acoustic performance; test procedures and interpretation of test reports; effective design of door assemblies for acoustic performance, including door construction and the influence of sealing systems; design conflicts between acoustic performance, durability and ease of operation of the door; independent accreditation. The Role and Performance of Fire and Smoke-Resisting Door Assemblies The importance of fire and smoke resisting door assemblies is illustrated by the 311 annual deaths in fire tragedies in the UK alone. Apart from the human toll, property losses each year approach 2.52 billion. Our fire and smoke containment CPD seminar covers: hard facts concerning deaths, injuries and property damage caused by fire and smoke; regulatory requirements for fire and smoke resisting door assemblies; the nature and behaviour of smoke; effective design of door assemblies for smoke containment, including the threshold gap; design conflicts between fire containment, smoke containment, durability and ease of operation of the door; independent accreditation. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and its implications for fire doors The RRO consolidated 70 pieces of legislation; shifted responsibility for fire safety management; abolished the Fire Safety Certificate; established the Fire Risk Assessment and created major change in legal liability. Our RRO CPD seminar covers: an overview of the RRO; product solutions; the dangers of fire and smoke; the importance of fire doors including installation and maintenance. Our CPD materials have been independently verified and certified by the RIBA as CPD approved.
