FIRE RATED DOOR

25/10/2022
What is a Fire Rated Door?

A fire door is the door component of a fire rated assembly.

They are required in many areas of buildings to protect occupants, block the
spread of flames and smoke, and minimize the overall property damage that can
occur during a fire. Fire rated doors are built and tested to withstand the heat,
smoke, and flames of a roaring fire while also providing a means of escape.
However, the fire door alone does not offer fire protection – it is the fire door
assembly that when used together offers fire protection. If one component of the
opening is not listed for use as part of the fire door assembly, the entire assembly
is void of its fire-resistance rating.
Fire Door Ratings and Types

Fire doors are rated in terms of minutes/hours; the fire rating defines how
long the assembly was tested to withstand a fire. Some common fire door
ratings are 30, 60, 90, and 120 (minutes). The fire rating required depends on
the adopted building codes and the location of the door opening.

Fire rated doors and frames are available in many types including wood,
hollow metal, and specialty products such as FRP (Fiber Reinforced
Polymer). Some door types, such as wood doors, also
require intumescent seals either built into the door edge or supplied as a
separate item that attaches to the fire door frame.

Critical Steps of Fire Doors

1. Design
2. Submission
3. Procurement
4. Production
5. Installation
6. Quality
Design
• Test report or global assessment number must be mentioned in all fire rated door set's
drawing or in the door schedule.
• Technical lead to check supporting documents for fire door set
– Test Report
– CoC
– DCD Certificate (inform MR is DCD certificate is not available)
• Door configuration and frame detail must match with tested door set.
• Intumescent strip and kit detail must match with tested door set.
• Door schedule and drawing to be shared with MR to verify.
• Correct door schedule is very important to get equipment supply certificate.
How to Design?
• For Project Based in UAE
Testing is mandatory
 Check if we have already tested the door set
 Do we have CoC for tested door set
 Design the door set based on test report
 Propose ironmongeries based on tested door set
 Submit the drawing for approval

• For Project Based Outside UAE

Depends on Specification and the Local Authorities Requirements
 Door schedule and summary should be shared with core suppliers
 Core supplier will suggest what design to be followed
 Propose ironmongeries based on GAs
 Door set can be designed based on GAs
 Submit the drawing for approval
