Fire protection in a residential building

Fires usually start unexpectedly and more often than you think - making reliable protection in your own home all the more important. Modern fire and smoke protection solutions ensure that fire and smoke do not spread uncontrollably. This not only saves valuable time for self-rescue, but also effectively belasts the spread of fire in the best case scenario. This significantly reduces damage to the building and important security. With tested fire and smoke protection systems from heroal, you can make your home more secure, protect people and property and increase living comfort at the same time.

In addition to the installation of smoke detectors and the voluntary provision of fire extinguishers, the installation of fire doors is crucial. In privately used residential buildings, a fire door is mandatory for the boiler room, e.g. for oil-fired heating systems, depending on the state building regulations and furnace regulations. Legislation also requires the door at the transition from the garage to the residential building to be fire-retardant. This connecting garage door is particularly important as it is designed to prevent flames and smoke from the garage spreading into the living space. This protection is becoming even more important in light of new technologies: solar storage units, e-bike batteries and other powerful battery systems are increasingly being installed in garages and basements. Electric vehicles are also often charged in the garage. These developments change the risk assessment, as battery storage systems and charging processes can pose particular dangers in the event of a fire. A fire-retardant connecting door makes an important contribution here to limiting the spread of fire and protecting people and property in the living area.
