To put it simply, fire doors save lives.
These specialist doors are screened against the elements and are designed to withstand roaring fire as long as possible.
Fire doors have some essential safety characteristics and can really be the distinction between life and death.
A fire door‘s primary role is to restrain the fire and act as a barrier between it and the next room. Typically, regular doors cannot resist a fire’s heat for a very long time and can be the entrance to spreading the fire. However, a fire door can be handled in distinct ways and distinct ratings can be provided to demonstrate how long it can resist fire heat. Doors can begin at 20-minute scores and climb up to 90 minutes.
