Why Fire Door Compliance Matters

We offer professional inspections, detailed reporting, and expert installation using only certified materials.

What Is a Fire Door?

A fire door is a specially designed safety feature that helps to compartmentalize a building in the event of a fire. It resists the passage of smoke, flames, and heat for a specified period—typically 30 minutes (FD30) or 60 minutes (FD60). Fire doors are a legal requirement in many types of buildings and play a vital role in allowing safe evacuation and reducing property damage.

Fire doors are made from fire-resistant materials and must be installed with approved components, including intumescent strips, smoke seals, fire-rated glazing, hinges, and door closers. However, even the best fire doors are only effective when fitted and maintained properly—which is where we come in.
