BS 8214:2026 — New Fire Door Code of Practice Now in Force
Published in March 2026, BS 8214:2026 is a major revision of the UK's code of practice for fire door assemblies, moving from prescriptive guidance to an evidence-based approach and tightening installation requirements to reduce non-compliant fitments. The update arrives alongside the withdrawal of the old BS 476-22 test standard, replaced by EN 1634-1, meaning installers should verify their products carry third-party certification to the new standard. Buildings over 11 metres now require quarterly fire door inspections in common areas, with digital Golden Thread documentation mandatory for all fire safety equipment. For trade contractors, this is the most significant shift in fire door compliance in years — worth reviewing your product specs and site inspection records now.

Commercial Window Friction Stays & Restrictors
Window friction stays and restrictors are the workhorses of commercial window hardware — used in offices, schools, hospitals, and care homes to control how far a window opens and prevent accidental falls. Quality friction stays are rated to EN 13126 and offer adjustable friction torque so the sash holds its position at any opening angle, which is essential for ventilation management in occupied buildings. Restrictors limit opening to 100mm where required under building regulations for child safety, and many models include a key-override release for emergency egress. Door Spares carries a full range in white, gold, and chrome finishes for casement, tilt & turn, and top-hung frames — all in stock for same-day despatch.

Installer Tip
Adjusting Friction Stay Torque to Stop a Window Dropping
If a casement window won't hold its position and swings shut under its own weight, the fix is almost always the friction stay — not the hinges. Most commercial stays have an adjustable pivot shoe: loosen the retaining screw, slide the shoe towards the pivot end to increase friction, and retighten. Do this incrementally and test the window at 45° and 90° before closing up. Over-tightening can cause the stay arm to bow or the shoe channel to crack on cheaper aluminium frames, so use firm finger pressure rather than a power driver. If the sash is exceptionally heavy (large double-glazed units), check the stay's weight rating — undersized stays will never hold regardless of adjustment.
