Kitchen fire door

[nearlythere]

Here is guidance we give all our staff at Royal Bolton Hospital
Toasters are only to be used in designated kitchens that have been approved by the Fire Safety Adviser.
      Toasters are only to be used for toasting bread.
·      All staff are reminded that when using toasters, they are not to be left unattended whilst the bread is toasting.
·      Only use standard size toast bread. Not double thickness bread, tea-cakes, barm cakes, flour cakes or similar.
·      Do not use toasters with extension leads.
·      Do not use toasters near sinks or other liquid sources.
·      Do not trail wires over hot surfaces or cause the wiring to be Health and Safety hazard.
·      Do not use the toaster underneath overhead cupboards/combustibles or adjacent other combustible materials.
·      After use, do not place the toaster adjacent anything that may be affected by the residual heat in the toaster body.
       Do not use toasters to heat up or soften items eg butter.
       Do not  use toasters to reheat partially cooked toast.

And finally - Do not take it into the bath with you - as it makes the toast soggy and hard to butter.

I thought people weren't worried about kitchen doors being FR anyway!  

In the ward kitchens in the hospital where I work, they have a smoke detector linked to the swing free doors, which close the door if actuated... but this is not linked to the main alarm....there is also a heat detector in there for the main alarm. They only have a toaster and a microwave.
