Application

Suitable for medium and low traffic areas.

Description

The LSDA double swing door system that is hung on pivots/ floor springs.


The Door System is designed specifically for inward opening Ambulant WC’s. These systems are designed to allow the door to swing outwards in the event of a patient falling or requiring assistance. An inward opening door would often restrict this from being possible, so the option to open the door outwards is extremely critical, as outlined in Building Regulations Approved Document M.


The SDS Lamdoor plugs the gap between a traditional laminate faced door and a DFendoor, offering a long-lasting yet commercially viable alternative.


Combining high damage-resilience, a range of attractive, fade-free colours and finishes and ultra-low maintenance requirements, SDS Lamdoor is the perfect fire safety compliant doorset for the less demanding healthcare environments, education settings, retail and hospitality sectors.

Threshold

Up to 10 mm.

Guidance for specification option:

Where FD30s or FD60s doors are required for smoke control, the doors must have a maximum gap of 3 mm under the door leaves in order to comply. Practically – a 3 mm gap is very hard to achieve without the doors binding or scraping on the floor, and therefore by default we use a dropseal in the base of the door where smoke control is required. A dropseal is automatically activated when the door is in the closed position, and seals against the floor. By using a dropseal – the gap under the doors can be increased up to 10 mm giving a more realistic door-to-floor clearance, but still achieving the requirements of BS 476-31.1: 1983. Dropseals are also fitted to acoustic rated doors where required.

Perimeter seals or inserts

Intumescent seal.

Guidance for specification option:

Door accessories

Lock profile options.

Guidance for specification option:

We offer our lockcases & cylinders in two profile options - Oval or Euro profile. Euro profile is the default choice as this is the most common in the UK. Oval profile is available on request.

Intumescent jackets.

Guidance for specification option:

Many ironmongery components will require 1mm or 2mm intumescent protection around the hardware in order to protect the cut-out in the door leaf in the event of a fire. These components are not listed in the ironmongery sets but the correct intumescent products are included automatically based on the fire rating of the door. This makes it simpler when selecting your ironmongery.

Fire signage.

Guidance for specification option:

Under building regulations, all fire doors must be fitted with mandatory fire signage. There are numerous types of mandatory signage, and the exact sign required depends on the type of door, and also depends on what other hardware is being fitted to the doorset. Mandatory fire signage is not listed in the ironmongery sets as this is required in order to meet building regulations, but it will automatically be included according to the fire rating of the doorset, and according to the other hardware items on the door.

Door closers.

Guidance for specification option:

We use Slide Arm Cam Action Door closers. These are available in surface mounted, or concealed options. Cam Action door closers use a ‘cam and follower’ mechanism which means a much lower resistance when opening the door, when compared to Scissor Arm Closers, and also offering premium closing force and control. This makes them the first choice for meeting the requirements of Approved Document M + BS 8300. In addition the slide arm provides a very aesthetically pleasing finish, with less protruding parts which are prone to damage.

EMHO door closers.

Guidance for specification option:

EMHO stands for Electro Magnetic Hold Open. Under BS 476: Part 22 - all fire rated doors into a room, or on a corridor must be fitted with a door closer to ensure that the doors are held in the closed position. Under no circumstances must a fire door be kept in the open position, unless fitted with an EMHO closer. An EMHO closer is designed to be linked to the fire alarm, and the closer contains a magnetic device which holds the door in the open position. In the event of the fire alarm being activated, the closer will automatically release the doors.

Hinges.

Guidance for specification option:

The DSS door will be supplied with high quality concealed bearing hinges. These hinges utilise advanced polymer bushes to provide an oil free, maintenance free hinge. These hinges have been tested to the European Standard EN1935, and meet the highest grade possible – Grade 14. Our hinges are designed to take door weights of up to 160 kg and have been independently tested to over 1,000,000 cycles.

Kickplates.

Guidance for specification option:

Whilst PVC encapsulated doors are arguably the most durable option for internal healthcare doorsets – some clients like to add additional PVC kickplates to the face of the doors in order to provide enhanced protection, and/or to provide a contrasting colour feature. PVC Kickplates are available flushed into the face of the door (providing flushed in PVC Edge Protectors are also fitted), or as surface mounted kickplates. The beauty of surface mounted PVC kickplates is that they

are fully replaceable, and unlike Stainless Steel kickplates - there are no size restrictions on fire rated doors.

Edge protectors.

Guidance for specification option:

PVC Edge Protectors are often used where the door and frame are similar in colour, to provide a contrasting colour to one or both door edges. The Building Regulations Approved Document Part M (BS 8300-2:2018), states that the presence of doors, whether open or closed, should be apparent to visually impaired people through the careful choice of colour and material for the door and its surroundings. This document also states that all Internal doors should be identifiable and contrast visually with the surrounding wall and floor finishes, achieving at least 30 points LRV. PVC Edge Protectors are available in any of the colours listed above and are supplied flushed into the face of the door for infection control purposes, and in order to simplify the fitting of the ironmongery.

Fire & smoke seals.

Guidance for specification option:

As standard, Intumescent Brush strips are fitted to all doors, and plain intumescent strips are used where two Brush strips would conflict - i.e. on the meeting stiles of a pair of doors. All strips are supplied in either Black or White, as standard.

Threshold seals.

Guidance for specification option:

Where FD30s or FD60s doors are required for smoke control, the doors must have a maximum gap of 3mm under the door leaves in order to comply. Practically – a 3mm gap is very hard to achieve without the doors binding or scraping on the floor, and therefore by default we use a dropseal in the base of the door where smoke control is required. A dropseal is automatically activated when the door is in the closed position, and seals against the floor. By using a dropseal – the gap under the doors can be increased up to 10mm giving a more realistic door-to-floor clearance, but still achieving the requirements of BS 476-31.1: 1983. Dropseals are also fitted to acoustic rated doors where required.

Door handings.

Guidance for specification option:

Door handings refer to the side of the door where the hinges are, when viewing the hinge knuckle side (‘pull-side’) of the door. Unequal pairs of doors refer to the large leaf. Double door handings refer to the main leaf.

Overhead panels.

Guidance for specification option:

Solid or Glazed overhead panels are available on the DSS Door System. Glass panels can be either clear or frosted, and Solid panels can be in the same colour or a contrasting colour to the door leaves.

Sidescreen panels.

Guidance for specification option:

Solid or Glazed Sidescreen panels are available on the DSS Door System. Glass panels can be either clear or frosted, and Solid panels can be in the same colour or a contrasting colour to the door leaves.

Air transfer grilles.

Guidance for specification option:

Grilles are often fitted into walls and ceilings, but sometimes they need to be fitted in doors. However, fire and smoke travels wherever there’s air movement. Our intumescent air transfer grilles create the solution by expanding to form a solid block in the event of a fire, in order to stop

fire spreading. Air transfer grilles are available on the DSS system in NFR, FD30 or FD60 rating. (Note Air Transfer Grilles are not suitable for smoke rated doors – i.e. FD30s or FD60s.)

FrameType

Double Swing (Offset).

Guidance for specification option:

This type of frame is designed specifically for the LSDA and LUDA door systems. The door sits flush with the face of the frame rather than centrally like other double swing doors, and is designed to allow an Emergency Release Door Stop to be fitted within the frame reveal to allow the door to open in reverse in the event of an emergency. Frame fixings are normally placed within the intumescent groove, and the architraves are supplied with loose PVC covers to conceal fixings, thus giving a completely fixing-free finish. 

Edges

Postformed.

Guidance for specification option:

All door edges are Postformed. This means that the PVC sheets on the faces of the doors are heated up and formed around the edges of the door. This provides the ultimate solution for both impact protection and hygiene, as there are no joints, no unprotected edges, and no loose components. The joint between the two faces of PVC is fitted with an intumescent strip.

Ironmongery

Define range - Stainless steel.

Guidance for specification option:

Made from Stainless Steel - this is the Go-To option for most doorsets. Stainless Steel is extremely tough and offers good corrosion resistance to most oxidizing acids making it easy to sanitise - ideal for the rigorous demands of hospital environments.

Define plus range - Anti-microbial.

Guidance for specification option:

A range of ironmongery with an Anti-Microbial coating containing silver ions. The silver ions in the coating continuously fight against harmful bacteria by disrupting the bacteria’s metabolism which inhibits its survival and reproduction. The coating is extremely tough and remains operative even when subjected to the normal cleaning regimes of a hospital. Note - only ‘touch-point’ items will be coated. This includes Pull Handles, Push Plates, Lever Handles, Escutcheons and Bathroom Thumbturns. Where an ironmongery set is specified as Anti-Microbial, all ‘non-touch-point’ items will be Stainless Steel. Please also note, Digi-Locks are not available in Anti-Microbial finish.

Define copper range - Copper nickel.

Guidance for specification option:

A range of ironmongery made from solid copper alloy. The key difference with this range is that it is not coated - it is made from solid copper alloy which continuously kills 99.9% of harmful bacteria, whilst maintaining the clinical aesthetic of stainless steel. Copper is the first and only elemental solid surface material registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to actively kill bacteria. The antibacterial properties work 24/7, never washing out or wearing away, making it the ideal choice where infection control is paramount. Our Copper Nickel range of ironmongery is manufactured using a 70-30 copper-nickel alloy,

which makes the range tarnish-resistant and will not oxidize and patinate like pure copper. Note - only ‘touch-point’ items will be made from Copper Nickel. This includes Pull Handles, Push Plates, Lever Handles, Escutcheons and Bathroom Thumbturns. Where an ironmongery set is specified as Copper Nickel, all ‘nontouch-

point’ items will be Stainless Steel. Please also note, Digi-Locks are not available in Copper Nickel.

Handle type

Lever handle.

Guidance for specification option:

Locking options:

  • Sashlock: Slide arm closer (Only if fire rated).
  • Latch: Slide arm closer (Only if fire rated).
  • Bathroom: Slide arm closer (Only if fire rated).
