Changes in Legislation New fire safety rules affecting all non-domestic premises in England & Wales have been in force since October 2006. Fire certificates ceased to have legal status, the responsibility for complying with the Fire Safety Order now resting with the 'responsible person'. In a workplace for example this is the employer and any other person who may have the control of any part of the premises, e.g the occupier or owner.

ORBIS POCKET DOORSETS Orbis Pocket Doorset Range is a heavy duty sliding door system in which the door slides neatly into the wall cavity. It is suitable for heavy traffic applications in areas such as care homes, schools and hospitals.
Roomsaver Design The sliding door system provides significant benefits to the occupant. With the door sliding into the wall the 'Roomsaver' design combines optimum stability with maximum free passage, ideal for situations which require wider openings or simply where space is limited. The ability to provide single doors up to 1230mm wide makes Orbis Pocket doors particularly useful for wheelchair users or in healthcare applications, allowing the passage of beds without the need for double doors.

Frame Construction
Split Head Facility
Frames are produced in 1.5mm steel with a highly resilient white powder coated finish as standard.
A split head frame construction allows a ceiling mounted hoist system to pass cleanly through the doorway without interupting the action of the door.
All frames are supplied with a double recess and reinforcement. The mechanism requires no floor guides and the smooth action of the sliding system includes built-in brush seals and end buffers giving a perfectly smooth and stable action.
