“There are loads of advantages to this product. Dorgard ensures easy access and allows people to be independent as they don’t have to call for help to open the doors.
Dorgard also really helps with ventilation as the door keeps fresh air coming through, which is particularly beneficial in summer. It also acts as a security measure, as when the doors are open you can always see who’s coming into the building.”

“Someone mentioned Dorgard as a possible solution. I ordered the product, it was delivered in two days and we solved the problem in less than a week.
If you’re trying to link a door to an alarm, you have to run cables through and that’s expensive. My guy just had to screw it to the door and we were ready to go. Dorgard is inexpensive, reliable and we’re compliant with fire regulations.”
