FAQs:

What are fire doors, and how do they differ from standard doors?

Fire doors are specially designed doors that are constructed to resist the spread of fire and smoke for a specified period, typically ranging from 30 minutes to 2 hours. Unlike standard doors, fire doors undergo rigorous testing to ensure they meet strict fire safety regulations. They feature fire-resistant materials and seals to contain flames and smoke, providing vital protection in the event of a fire.

Do fire doors have to comply with specific regulations, and what standards should they meet?

Yes, fire doors must comply with national and international fire safety regulations, such as those set by the British Standards Institution (BSI) in the UK. In the UK, fire doors should meet the requirements outlined in British Standard BS 476 or European Standard EN 1634. These standards specify criteria for fire resistance, including the duration of fire resistance, integrity (preventing flames and smoke from passing through), and insulation (minimising heat transfer).

Can fire doors be customised to match the aesthetic of my property?

Our collection of fire doors features a wide range of styles, finishes, and materials to complement any interior design scheme. Whether you prefer sleek wooden fire doors or glass fire doors with glazed panels for added elegance, a couple of coats of interior wood paint is all it takes to fully customise your fire doors to perfectly fit your style preferences. It's essential to ensure that any modifications or additions to fire doors maintain their fire resistance properties and comply with relevant safety standards. Bear this in mind when considering any alterations involving trimming or shaving your new doors or asking a carpenter to do this before hanging them.
