FIRE DOOR HARDWARE TRAINING, DEMOS AND COMPETITIONS


Allegion helps keep people safe where they live, learn, work and connect and is bringing together its family of trusted door hardware brands at The Fire Safety Event 2026, taking place between the 28th and 30th April at the NEC, Birmingham.

Allegion’s team of fire door safety experts will span two exhibition stands at this year’s Fire Safety Event, 4/E90 and 4/F20. At stand 4/E90, visitors can explore a comprehensive portfolio of precision-engineered solutions, with a series of working door displays and live demonstrations highlighting how Allegion’s security, hardware and door control products operate as part of a complete and compliant fire door assembly. 

Throughout the three day event, Allegion’s experts will provide practical, on-the-spot guidance and advice for its range of tested and certified hardware solutions, suitable for timber, steel and composite fire doors.

Amongst the featured products on stand 4/E90 will be the new Boss electromagnetic hold-open cam-action door closer. Designed to integrate into the alarm system of modern buildings, it provides effortless accessibility, free movement and life safety compliance. 

Other stand highlights include the fire-rated FinProtect Plus finger protection guards, used to safeguard fingers on the hanging side of doors, and the Zero International Drop Seal, an automatic drop seal mechanism that automatically lowers and raises the seal when the door is operated. In addition, Allegion will demonstrate its widely used Briton and Von Duprin panic and emergency exit hardware ranges.

Allegion is also inviting visitors to stand 4/F20, where a dedicated team will provide support on fire door safety best practice and compliance, and introduce accredited practical fire door training courses from Fire Door Maintenance (FDM) for professionals looking to upskill and develop key areas of their knowledge.


Alongside product demonstrations, Allegion is also running a competition, offering visitors the chance to win a free one-day accredited training course at its state-of-the-art FDM training centre. To enter, participants must correctly identify the faults found on an on-stand fire door display. One winner will be drawn each day of the event and may attend their chosen course on a date of their choice.

Speaking on their presence at this year’s event, Pete Hancox, country manager at Allegion UK, commented: “The Fire Safety Event is a celebrated occasion in the industry calendar, and we are delighted to be making a return with our growing family of brands. More than ever, we remain committed to advancing fire door safety and raising awareness on the correct specification, installation and maintenance of door hardware.

“Our team of experts possess decades of experience and combined with a complete portfolio of high quality products from industry leading brands such as Briton, Boss, Fullex, Zero International and UAP, we are well positioned to reach, educate and support visitors at this year’s event. Over the three days, we will have a valuable platform that allows us to engage with professionals through live hardware demonstrations, compliance guidance and practical training sessions designed to improve fire door safety standards.

“We look forward to welcoming visitors to both our stands for what will be our largest presence at the event to date, as we showcase our fire door hardware solutions for both residential and commercial sectors.”
