Fire Door ratings, What they mean?

When choosing steel fire exit doors, understanding fire door ratings is crucial. Fire-rated steel doors are independently tested and certified for the duration they can resist fire, usually expressed in minutes. For example:

  • An FD30 fire door is rated to resist fire for 30 minutes, often recommended for internal corridors and entrances, safeguarding escape routes and compartmentalising buildings.
  • An FD60 rated door offers 60 minutes of protection, typically used for communal exits or particularly vulnerable areas, such as stairwells or high-occupancy spaces.

In demanding environments such as factories or large public buildings, higher ratings and additional specifications may be required. At Smokeseal, we guide our customers through these options, ensuring that the right steel fire exit doors are installed to meet building control and insurance requirements. Every door we supply is security-rated, external or internal as needed, and delivered with full certification for total peace of mind. Rely on our 25 years' industry experience and FDIS qualifications for properly specified industrial and commercial fire doors that keep occupants safe when it matters most.
