Why Fire Doors are key in Passive Fire Protection

Successful passive fire protection is about the ability to contain the fire to a particular room (or compartment) thus giving occupants enough time to escape.

Ideally this will also allow the fire service enough time to enter the premises and tackle the fire.

From that perspective, a fire door is one of the most important fire safety measures you can have in your building.

As they are designed to prevent fire and/or smoke spreading they are the best defence when it comes to spread prevention. 

Unfortunately, fire doors are also usually being used in a functional way on a day-to-day basis.

So they are at risk of damage and abuse, potentially compromising their ability to protect your building.

Therefore, it’s essential to ensure regular inspections and repairs, preventing the need for replacement. And more importantly, ensuring your buildings remain safe, secure and compliant.

We can inspect, maintain and repair your existing fire doors and if required supply new doors.
