Yes, overhead doors can be designed with man doors. Section 240.3 of their Technical Specifications clearly states that vertically operated doors shall not be installed across escape routes. However, it is permitted to install sliding doors with emergency exit man doors across escape routes.
Fire doors and protection curtains are special products, and their installation requires suitable professional licensing. Only authorised contractors who hold Installation Authorisation Certificates (issued by Małkowski-Martech) are allowed to install the products.
The technical services are provided by qualified and professionally experienced service technicians of MAŁKOWSKI-MARTECH S.A. or its contractors who are authorised to service the MARC type fire doors; our service technicians hold their Site Authorised Service Certificate.

What will happen if there is a blackout? Will the door drop on my head? How do I open the door with no power?
The powered doors can be operated manually in the event of a power outage. The control panel is provided with an emergency door opening key. An optional back-up battery can be provided to sustain the door drive and allow normal operation if the mains power is lost.
The key criterion is the fire resistance rating and, naturally, the installation requirements, or the clearance around the opening to be closed by the door. These two criteria determine the door type specification. We understand from experience that customers often confuse the E, EW and EI fire resistance ratings, and this is the primary driver of the installation requirements and the product price. Just as a reminder, (E) means fire integrity, (I) is fire insulation, and (W) means thermal radiation. These properties are measured with time (expressed in minutes).
