Our fire door services
Following the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order in 2005, property owners are now required by law to fit all premises (other than private homes) with appropriate fire doors. The fire door must be fitted by a ‘competent person’, defined by the Act as ‘someone with sufficient training and experience, qualifications and knowledge to be able to implement fire safety measures (some or all) in a building’.

Double fire doors
Double fire doors
A double fire door must comply with BS 8214:2008 which states the gap along the sides, top and between the leaves of a double door should be 3 mm +/- 1 mm. Double fire doors are ideal for larger openings and buildings with high occupancy.
Steel fire doors
Steel fire doors
Steel fire rated doors are certified for up to four hours of fire protection, meaning they will cover all FD30, FD60, FD120, FD180 and FD240 requirements. Ideal for applications such as commercial and industrial premises, they can also be used as a connecting door from your garage into your home.
Glass fire doors
Glass fire doors
It’s hard to think that glass is a fire-resistant material, yet thanks to sophisticated fire technology, it’s just as excellent as any other. It’s crucial to understand that glass fire doors must be built of fire-resistant glass. This indicates that the glass has undergone the necessary fire testing and has been certified as fire-resistant.
All pyropanel fire doors must use fire rated glass. Fire rated glass has been tested and approved as acting as a barrier for flames and smoke. Some fire rated glass will also act as a heat barrier. Fire rated glass can withstand temperatures in excess of 900°C while normal glass is unable to withstand anything above 120°C. Property fires will rage in excess of 600°C which is why it is essential your glass fire door is compliant with fire safety regulations.
Wooden fire doors
Wood fire doors
The British Woodworking Federation assigns an FD rating to timber fire doors to indicate their level of protection. Another prominent organisation that supplies fire door ratings is the British Woodworking Federation (BWF). The BWF fire ratings for fire door assemblies are expressed in minutes and preceded by the initials FD.
Fire door maintenance
Fire door maintenance
Fire doors must be regularly inspected and maintained to ensure they are fully functional should they need to be used. Checks should be carried out at least once every six months, more regularly for doors that experience high volumes of traffic and are more susceptible to damage. It is beneficial to get a registered FDIS inspector to check your fire doors. FDIS inspectors have achieved a diploma in fire doors and have had their competence and knowledge independently assessed.
