White Fire Doors
Door and Joinery specialises in manufacturing and supplying an extensive range of high-quality white fire doors. We understand the critical role that fire doors play in ensuring the safety and security of buildings, whether it's for a business, a residential property, or a public facility. Our commitment to quality and safety is unmatched, making us the preferred choice for fire doors and door and a half fire doors. Our fire doors are available in FD30 and FD60 ratings, designed to meet the varying needs of different environments.
What is a White Fire Door?
A fire door is a door with a fire-resistance rating used to reduce the spread of fire and smoke between separate compartments of a building and to enable safe exit. They are made from materials that resist burning and include additional components such as special seals and self-closing mechanisms. Fire doors are crucial in providing occupants with a protected escape route during a fire and help contain the fire within a limited area, thus reducing property damage.
Understanding FD30 and FD60 Ratings
Our white fire doors come with different fire-resistance ratings, the most common being FD30 and FD60.
FD30 Fire Doors
FD30 fire doors are designed to provide a fire resistance of at least 30 minutes. This duration is crucial in slowing down the spread of fire and smoke, allowing occupants ample time to evacuate the premises safely. In residential properties, these doors are commonly used to separate risk areas, such as kitchens or garages, from the main living spaces. By compartmentalising the fire, FD30 doors help contain it within a specific area, preventing it from spreading throughout the building.
In small commercial buildings, FD30 fire doors are often used to secure offices, storerooms, and other critical areas. They are also suitable for internal doors within larger buildings, providing an added layer of protection between different sections. The 30-minute fire resistance is particularly beneficial in environments where a rapid evacuation might be necessary but where the fire load is relatively low.
Additionally, FD30 fire doors are equipped with intumescent seals at the edges. When subjected to heat, these seals expand, filling any gaps between the frame and the door to block the passage of fire and smoke. This feature is essential in maintaining the integrity of the fire barrier.
FD60 Fire Doors
FD60 fire doors offer a higher level of protection, with a fire resistance rating of at least 60 minutes. This extended duration is critical in larger commercial buildings, public buildings, and high-risk areas where the consequences of a fire can be more severe. In these settings, the additional 30 minutes provided by FD60 doors can make a significant difference in allowing people to evacuate safely and in enabling fire services to control the fire.
These doors are commonly found in schools, hospitals, shopping centres, and other public buildings where the safety of numerous occupants is a primary concern. The extended protection offered by FD60 doors ensures that fire and smoke are contained for a longer period, reducing the risk of extensive damage and injury.
FD60 fire doors are constructed from more robust materials and include additional fire-resistant components compared to FD30 doors. They are designed to withstand higher temperatures and provide a more substantial barrier against the spread of fire and smoke. Like FD30 doors, they are also fitted with intumescent seals, which play a crucial role in maintaining the door's effectiveness in preventing the spread of fire.
Choosing the Right Rating
The choice between FD30 and FD60 fire doors depends on several factors, including the building type, its size, and its intended use. Residential properties typically require FD30 doors, which provide sufficient protection for smaller areas and allow for quick evacuation. However, in high-risk zones such as boiler rooms or areas where flammable materials are stored, FD60 doors might be more appropriate.
In commercial and public buildings, building regulations often specify the required fire resistance rating based on the building's layout and occupancy levels. For example, high-traffic areas or buildings with vulnerable occupants, such as hospitals and schools, generally necessitate the use of FD60 doors to ensure maximum safety.
Understanding the specific requirements of your building and consulting with fire safety professionals can help determine the most appropriate fire door rating for your needs. By choosing the correct fire door, you enhance the safety of the building's occupants and ensure compliance with fire safety regulations.
