Door & Joinery Solutions is committed to providing superior quality fire door sets that meet the highest safety standards. Our FD60 fire door sets are expertly designed to offer 60 minutes of fire resistance, ensuring maximum protection for both commercial and residential properties.

What is an FD60 Fire Door Set?

A fire door set is crucial in building fire safety, as it is designed to contain the spread of fire and smoke, provide a safe evacuation route, and protect property. Unlike standard doors, fire door sets are specifically engineered to withstand high temperatures and prevent the passage of fire.

A complete fire door set includes several elements that work together to ensure its effectiveness. The main component is the fire door leaf; the main door panel that blocks the fire is constructed from fire-resistant materials capable of enduring extreme heat. The door frame is designed to hold the door securely in place and is often made from materials that complement the fire resistance of the door leaf.

Intumescent strips and seals are crucial for preventing the passage of smoke and fire. They expand when exposed to heat, sealing gaps around the door. Additionally, fire-rated hardware, including hinges, locks, handles, and other fittings, are designed to maintain their integrity and functionality under fire conditions. In some cases, fire-resistant glass can be incorporated into the door to allow visibility while still providing fire protection.

The primary purpose of a fire door set is to save lives and protect property. In the event of a fire, these doors act as a barrier, slowing down the spread of fire and smoke. This containment is vital for providing a protected route for occupants to exit the building safely, limiting the extent of fire and smoke damage to property and contents, and allowing firefighters more time to control and extinguish the fire. By preventing the rapid spread of fire, fire door sets help ensure that a building's structure remains intact long enough for a safe evacuation and effective firefighting efforts.

Fire door sets must comply with specific regulations and standards to ensure their effectiveness. These doors are tested and certified in the UK according to British Standards (BS 476: Part 22) and European Standards (EN 1634-1). Compliance with these standards ensures that the fire door set has been rigorously tested for its fire resistance capabilities, including the performance of its components and the entire assembly. This rigorous testing process validates that the door sets can perform as expected in real fire scenarios, providing the necessary protection.

Features of FD60 Fire Door Sets

Our FD60 fire door sets are rigorously tested and certified to provide a full 60 minutes of fire resistance. This extended period of protection is crucial in safeguarding lives and minimising property damage during a fire. By containing the spread of fire and smoke, these doors allow for safe evacuation and give fire services more time to control the blaze. The 60-minute rating ensures that our doors meet stringent safety standards, making them an excellent choice for any property where fire safety is a top priority.

Crafted from premium materials, our FD60 fire doors are built to withstand intense heat and pressure. The core materials used in our doors are selected for their exceptional fire-resistant properties, ensuring they can effectively block the spread of fire and smoke.

Applications

Our FD60 fire doors with casings are ideal for various applications, providing robust fire safety solutions across various types of buildings.

Fire safety is paramount in commercial buildings, such as offices, retail spaces, warehouses, and other commercial properties. Installing FD60 fire doors with frames in these environments ensures that employees, customers, and valuable assets are protected from the spread of fire. These doors help create fire-resistant compartments, allow safe evacuation routes, and minimise fire damage to critical areas of the business.

Residential buildings, including apartment complexes, houses, and other residential properties, also benefit significantly from our FD60 fire doors with frames. The doors provide reliable fire protection, giving homeowners and tenants peace of mind. In multi-unit dwellings, fire door sets are particularly crucial in preventing the spread of fire between units, ensuring the safety of all residents and helping to comply with building safety regulations.

Public buildings, such as schools, hospitals, government buildings, and other public spaces, require stringent fire safety measures to protect large numbers of occupants. Our FD60 fire doors with frames are designed to meet these high safety standards, ensuring that there are effective barriers to slow the spread of fire and smoke in the event of a fire. This protection is vital for the safe evacuation of individuals, especially in facilities where occupants may have limited mobility, such as hospitals and care homes.

By installing our FD60 fire doors with casings across these various applications, property owners and managers can ensure higher safety, compliance with fire regulations, and overall peace of mind, knowing that their buildings are equipped to handle fire emergencies effectively.
