Fire doors are an essential part of fire barriers and fire walls.  Their correct operation may mean the difference between a controlled fire and a conflagration.

 

Today’s Coffee Break Training, “Opening Protective Fusible Link Releases,” describes where to install the fusible links for fire doors so they are in the optimal position.
