Lorient’s Resource Centre

A fire door is an engineered safety device comprising many components such as the door leaf and frame, any glazing, intumescent fire and smoke seals, ironmongery that is used on the door, such as hinges, overhead door closers, latches and locks. They act just like any other door in normal service, but in a fire, they take on a critical role – to save lives and protect property. It does this by holding back the spread of fire and smoke through a building for a designated period, giving time for building occupants to escape.
As a leading manufacturer of fire, smoke & acoustic sealing systems for door assemblies – we are proud to offer a comprehensive knowledge centre. Home to an extensive library of resources comprising high quality videos and animations, technical product information, practical learning materials and much more.
Animations & Videos
Our unique videos and animations cover a range of topics - whether you're looking for information on how Lorient products work; or want to learn about the importance of correctly specified, installed and maintained fire doors.
We’re always adding to our collection and have recently launched a new fire test video on the LVH44 air transfer grille. As one of our most popular and critical fire containment products, our latest video covers the basics; what an ATG is and its purpose, before we put the LVH44 to the test to see just how quickly the grille closes in order to contain smoke and fire. You can watch the video below, and see our full range of videos and animations here.
Our Resource Centre also includes innovative tools to help make specifying our products for your projects, easier.
