Custom fire protection in old buildings while protecting historical architecture
Renovation during ongoing operations
The ever-increasing visitor footfall and the growing demands for modern fire protection on the part of the property insurer prompted a rethink of the fire protection concept. Adelberg-based company HOBA – Holzbau Schmid GmbH & Co. KG, a dormakaba Executive Solution Partner for door technology, was commissioned to carry out the work. HOBA doors and glazing are safety-critical components for fire protection purposes and usually meet additional functional requirements. The fire protection upgrade of the property and the need to carry out the work while the building was in use called for considerable planning flexibility at HOBA.
Varied building structures: a stimulating opportunity and a challenge
The solution had to address a wide variety of wall types, including sandstone, rubble masonry and historic brick. Ultimately, HOBA managed to resolve even the trickiest installation conditions in close cooperation with its long-standing partner, the Pettmesser joinery in Oberhausen, Upper Bavaria.
Fire protection solutions to meet exacting requirements
To implement this major project, the decision was made to use 50 HOBA fire and smoke protection doors, which meet a wide range of requirements and provide safety, functionality, material quality, convenience and excellent design. A number of different dormakaba door components were used, including ED 250 automatic operators, TS 93 EMR door closers in the Contur design, ITS 96 integrated door closers and BTS 80 F floor springs.
