In a distribution or manufacturing building the rated doors are the ones in everybody’s way. The separation between the plant floor and the office. The stairwell at the end of the mezzanine. The electrical and service rooms. Every one of them sits on a route somebody is trying to move product along, which is exactly why they end up wedged.
Ontario’s Fire Code requires the closures in a fire separation to be kept in operating condition, and forbids them being obstructed, blocked or wedged open. A pallet holding a door back is a violation for the entire time it is there, and it is the first thing a Vaughan Fire and Rescue Service inspector will see. The legitimate version of the same convenience is an electromagnetic hold-open tied into the fire alarm, so the door stands open all shift and drops on a signal.
The other finding is quieter and more common: a door that closes but does not latch. In a plant it usually has a physical cause — a strike knocked out of line by a pallet truck, a closer shouldered out of adjustment, a frame that has been hit. We walk the rated list rather than chasing complaints: every device released from full open, latch speed and sizing corrected, strikes and clearances sorted, dead units replaced, hold-opens tested against an actual alarm release, and one written record at the end for the fire safety plan file.

Fire Door Closer Repair & Fire Code Compliance — your questions
The separation between the plant floor and the office will not latch. How serious is that?
Serious. That door is the whole reason the office is treated as a separate space, and a door that does not latch is not a separation. In a plant it usually fails for very ordinary reasons — a closer shouldered out of adjustment, a strike knocked by a pallet truck, or a door wedged so the fork traffic would stop hitting it. All three are correctable, generally on the same visit.
We have a delivery schedule that needs the door open. What is legal?
A hold-open device wired to the fire alarm, so the door releases and closes on a signal. Anything that does not release — a wedge, a hook, a length of strapping, a pallet — is a violation the entire time it is in place. On a busy dock corridor a magnetic holder pays for itself the first time it is not written up.
Can you do a whole distribution building in one pass?
Yes, and it suits these buildings far better than door-by-door call-outs. We walk the rated list — plant-to-office separations, stairwells, service and electrical rooms, corridor doors — test each from full open, adjust what will adjust, and hand back a single written list of what was corrected and what still needs hardware.
