    Can I use Briton escape devices on internal fire-rated doors?
    		Yes. All Briton panic bars and Briton push pads have UK fire certification for use on either wood or hollow metal doors. Check each product carefully for certification parameters before installation to ensure compliance with the relevant standards.
    I have fitted a 372 push pad vertical rod device, and the rods are dragging on the floor when I open the door. Why is this happening?
    		This could be due to one or a combination of factors. Rods might be cut too long, the shoot end plug may not be adjusted correctly, but more than likely, the top tripper is not aligned according to the fixing instructions. Check all measurements and fixing positions against the installation instructions.

    I have a pair of escape route doors with plain meeting stiles. What combination of devices should I fit to these doors?
