A hand closing a door Sleeping with the door closed is your greatest tool to prevent fire spread

Keep the door closed! This has become the motto of many fire prevention associations when asked about whether you should keep your door open or closed when you sleep. Keeping the door closed when you sleep has many benefits. It will reduce fire growth and spread, limit damage to your home, and save lives! Those should be reason enough to keep the door closed. Fires spread far faster throughout the home than they did forty years ago. Due to modern synthetic materials and furniture, fire is up to 7x faster. While you had up to 17 minutes to escape a fire 40 years ago, you only have 3 minutes today! Closed doors will slow fire growth. When leaving a room that’s on fire, close the door! In the event of a fire disaster, SERVPRO will help you with our team of trained technicians and specialized equipment. We will work fast and thoroughly to restore your home to pre-fire conditions.
