Comprehensive solution for apartment emergency exits

22/06/2023

Currently, high-rise apartment buildings or office buildings often use elevators and stairs to move around, and a separate emergency exit in case of an emergency. Apartment emergency exits were created to solve that requirement, helping people move to a safe place when in trouble.

Because of that important role, in construction items, apartment emergency exit doors (also known as steel fire doors) are an important item that is mandatory before the project is put into use. . For an emergency exit door to meet requirements, the quality of materials that make up the door is one of the top deciding factors.

How important are apartment emergency exits?

High-rise buildings today all have emergency exits that open the way for residents in case of an emergency. The apartment’s emergency exit door is a closed fireproof steel door.

Installing fire escape doors is essential to protect human life and property. In particular, when there is a fire or explosion incident, it can easily lead to local fire spread, causing serious impacts to surrounding areas. That’s why the separation between the corridors of each floor and the emergency exit is a set of fire doors, on the fire door set there is an emergency escape bar.

The emergency exit bar is a horizontal bar mounted about 1 meter above the ground. The user just needs to run up and touch the emergency exit bar with their hand, shoulder or hip, the door will automatically open and help the user escape. Then the door will automatically close thanks to the hydraulic door closer. Apartment emergency exits only allow one-way access due to a number of reasons such as:

  • Ensuring building security: Preventing thieves from following the escape route to the floors.
  • Helps emergency exits only flow in one direction: Helps users avoid collisions when exiting.
  • The door automatically closes and only allows users to exit in one direction (inside and out): helping to isolate fire and dust from entering the emergency exit.

Therefore, apartment emergency exits (apartment fire doors) not only help people evacuate promptly but also prevent fire and smoke from spreading to surrounding areas, helping firefighting take place quickly. faster, easier, significantly reducing damage to property, and most importantly, human life.
