A Rolling Fire Door for Every Occasion

The Cookson Company, Inc. offers two types of fire door systems to meet the requirements of any fire door opening.

Simple-Test Manual Fire Doors
This group of fire doors requires manual resetting by a trained technician after the system has been tested or actuated. All Simple-Test Fire Doors feature Cookson’s exclusive Sure-Close release spring, which can be reset with an open-end wrench from one side of the door. Available in Push-Up, Chain and Crank operation, Cookson’s Simple-Test Fire Doors are more reliable and easier to reset than any other manual reset fire door, thus reducing resetting time from hours to minutes.

Auto-Test Fire Door Systems
Cookson Auto-Test Fire Door Systems reset automatically after being tested or actuated by smoke detectors or building alarm systems. Once the alarm has been cleared the fire door system automatically resets and is ready for the next test or actuation. Auto-Test Fire Door Systems eliminate the need for a trained technician to test and reset the fire door, thus reducing testing and operating costs.
