8. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your fire door.

• Debris: Check for any debris or foreign objects in the lock or handle assembly.
• Wear: If lubrication does not resolve the issue, the lock or handle components may be worn and require replacement.

8.3 Squeaking Hinges
