Its product line includes continuous geared hinges, edge-sealing products for fire doors and
smoke doors, nylon brush seals, low-closing-force automatic door bottoms, and a patented line of ADA-compliant modular ramp thresholds.

smoke doors, and activate other life-safety and property-protection procedures.
