[self-closing fire door and self-closing door]: There seems to be some confusion with respect to the meaning of self-closing fire door. Although CFP-LM-187-004 and SCONS attribute the same meaning to automatic fire door and self-closing fire door, ACONS warns against the synonymy since the latter type of door is normally closed and designed to close automatically upon being opened. See the records for "fire door" and "self-closing door". 6, record 2, English, - automatic%20fire%20door
