Fire Door Inspections
Fire Doors play a key role in building safety. To help protect
property and save lives, these doors must properly operate in the event of a fire. Tar River
Lock & Key is able to assist facility owners and tenants in their legal
obligation to maintain openings in compliance with fire and life safety
codes (such as NFPA 80, NFPA 101).
