Industry News
BS 476-22 Withdrawn: Fire Door Hardware Must Now Meet EN 1634-1
BS 476-22 was officially withdrawn in March 2026 and replaced by EN 1634-1 as the standard for testing fire door assemblies in commercial buildings. Critically, the new BS 8214:2026 requires the door leaf, frame, and all hardware — including closers, hinges, and intumescent seals — to be certified as a single compatible tested system, not assessed individually. For contractors and facilities managers, this means specifying replacement hardware that matches the original tested system is now a compliance requirement, not just best practice. When in doubt, check the CE marking and system certification before fitting any fire door component.
Product Spotlight
Window Gear & Espagnolette Bolts
Window espagnolette bolts and multipoint locking gear are the backbone of secure commercial casement and tilt-and-turn windows across offices, schools, and healthcare facilities. A quality espagnolette bolt engages at multiple points along the frame simultaneously, dramatically improving resistance to forced entry compared to a single-point lock — a requirement under many insurance policies. Door Spares stocks a wide range of window handles, friction stays, shootbolts, and locking cylinders to suit UPVC, aluminium, and timber frames. All available for same-day despatch, so your job doesn't have to wait on parts.

Installer Tip
Diagnosing a Door Closer That Won't Hold Open on the Backcheck
If a hydraulic door closer fails to resist when the door is pushed hard open, the backcheck valve is either worn or set too loose — not the spring. Locate the backcheck adjustment screw (usually marked "B" or "BC" on the end cap) and turn it clockwise in small increments, testing after each quarter-turn. The backcheck should engage smoothly between 70° and 80° of opening; a sudden hard stop indicates it's set too tight and risks snapping the arm bracket over time. If adjustment doesn't resolve it, check for oil seepage around the body — a sign the closer needs replacing rather than tuning.
