Doors should be readily openable to avoid undue delay to people escaping. Doors on escape routes (both within and from the building) should comply with paragraphs 3.91 to 3.98. Guidance on door closing and ‘hold open’ devices for fire doorsets is set out in Appendix C.
NOTE: Paragraphs 3.91 to 3.98 do not apply to flat entrance doors.
