Insulating-Swelling Pads to Protect Door Lock Against Passing Through High Temperatures During Fire
In case of fire the metal door lock is one of weak elements of every door, because metal is a good heat conductor. That is why a solution we recommend is application on both sides the inserts to protect the door lock which actively prevent against passing through the heat. In case of fire the insert, swelling, fills up all the gaps and creates a perfect insulating layer, which protect against passing through fire, smoke and toxic gases and temperature.
