IMPROVED ACCESS FOR PUPILS WITH DORMAG PRO

» EASTBROOK IS A TWOform entry school , for children aged four to 11 . Situated on the south coast near Brighton , it serves children from the Southwick and Fishersgate communities . In a school environment , fire doors are constantly opening and shutting , but “ the children were finding it difficult to use them because of their weight ,” explains Sharon Morgan , Premises Manager of Eastbrook school . “ Just getting to the toilet could be an issue .”
After listening to the school about the issue , Fireco suggested that they try installing our new DorMag Pro door retainers .
