What is a Oak Fire Door Frame?

A fire door frame plays a crucial role in the overall effectiveness of a fire door system. While the door itself acts as a barrier to delay the spread of fire and smoke, the frame ensures that the door remains securely in place during a fire, sealing off rooms and escape routes. Fire door frames are constructed from materials designed to withstand high temperatures, maintaining the integrity of the fire door for a specific period, either 30 or 60 minutes, depending on the rating.

We understand the critical function that fire door frames play in safeguarding lives and property. That's why we use only the finest oak and fire-rated materials, ensuring our frames meet stringent safety requirements. Our fire door frames are extensively tested to guarantee they form an effective seal between rooms, helping to contain fire and limit damage in the event of an emergency.

Fire door frames can be used in a wide range of settings, providing peace of mind to homeowners, business owners, and facility managers alike. In homes and small businesses such as retail stores and offices, FD30 fire doors and frames are often used. These are rated to provide 30 minutes of protection, which is generally considered ample time for occupants to evacuate safely while fire services are alerted.

Specific examples of where FD30 fire doors and frames are used include small offices, independent retail shops, and residential properties where local regulations demand fire protection for escape routes and key areas, such as kitchens. In these environments, 30 minutes is a reliable amount of time to ensure that evacuation routes remain accessible, giving occupants a vital window to escape before fire and smoke spread.

In environments where heightened fire protection is essential, such as schools and hospitals, FD60 fire doors and frames are the ideal choice. Designed to provide up to 60 minutes of fire resistance, these doors are crucial for larger or higher-risk buildings where evacuation times may be longer or where critical areas need enhanced safeguarding. FD60 doors are frequently installed in settings that house vulnerable individuals or contain valuable equipment, making them indispensable in hospitals, educational facilities, and other high-occupancy buildings. The extended protection they offer ensures that fire spread is minimised, allowing for safe evacuation and reducing potential fire damage, even in challenging situations.

The choice between FD30 and FD60 fire doors and frames depends on the specific safety requirements of the building and the types of materials or occupants inside. Door & Joinery are here to guide you through the options, ensuring you select the right level of protection for your needs.

Types of Oak Fire Door Frames

Our fire rated oak door frames come in various styles to suit different applications, whether you're fitting them into a residential property or a commercial space. Below are the primary types we stock, all of which are engineered for durability, strength, and ease of installation.

Single Fire Door Frames: Single door frames are the most common type, designed for individual door installations. These frames are perfect for residential homes or small office spaces, where a single fire-rated door is required to protect key escape routes or compartmentalise areas. The elegance of oak adds a touch of natural beauty, blending safety with aesthetics. Oak's strength ensures a sturdy, long-lasting frame that provides excellent fire resistance, making it an ideal material for homes and smaller workspaces.

Double Fire Door Frames: Double door frames are designed for larger openings, making them ideal for commercial buildings that require wide access points for foot traffic or equipment. These frames are also particularly suited to settings like hospitals and schools, where the movement of people and essential resources is frequent, and safety is paramount. In such high-occupancy environments, fire-rated protection is crucial, and double fire doors, installed in these frames, offer enhanced protection and fire containment across expansive areas. Whether for large office buildings, retail spaces, or vital institutions like hospitals and schools, double oak frames combine strength with aesthetic appeal while ensuring full compliance with fire safety regulations.

Door and a Half Oak Fire Door Frames: The door and a half configuration offers a versatile solution for spaces that require a larger-than-standard opening without the need for a full double door. This frame is ideal for smaller commercial spaces that require occasional wide access but don't need it daily. It's commonly used in storage areas, back-of-house operations in retail, or areas where occasional large equipment must pass through. The design offers enhanced protection while allowing flexibility in door operation, making it a practical solution for spaces that balance day-to-day functionality with the need for fire safety.

In addition to our standard range, we also offer custom fire rated oak door frames tailored to meet non-standard requirements. If you have specific design or size needs, Door & Joinery can craft bespoke frames to ensure that your property remains protected without compromising on style or functionality.

Uncompromising Quality and Safety Standards

At Door & Joinery, every oak fire door frame we produce is subject to rigorous quality control processes. All our frames are CERTIFIRE accredited, ensuring they meet the highest industry standards for fire safety.
