Fire Doors Explained

Understanding the crucial role of fire doors is essential when it comes to property protection and fire safety. Fire doors act as a handy barrier - containing the spread of fire and smoke, giving occupants valuable time to evacuate safely. These doors are specially designed to withstand the intense heat of a fire, and as such, are a fundamental component of any effective fire safety strategy. Installing fire doors requires careful consideration of various factors. The type of building and its usage will influence the specifications of the fire doors needed, whereas different areas within a building may have distinct fire resistance requirements, for instance, a commercial kitchen may demand a higher fire resistance rating compared to an office space.

Trust Professionals

The installation process demands precision and adherence to strict regulations once you have opted for emergency fire exits, and our qualified technicians from Snowdonia Fire Protection are trained to ensure that fire doors are fitted correctly. DIY installation is not recommended, as it may compromise the effectiveness of the fire doors and, consequently, the overall fire safety of the property. Fire doors should be inspected at least annually to ensure that they meet the required standards, and identifying any issues promptly can ease your mind later down the line. This proactive approach not only enhances property protection but also ensures compliance with fire safety regulations.

The Importance Of Maintenance

Over time, routine wear and tear can compromise the integrity of a fire door and its components, though regular maintenance checks include examining the door for any signs of damage, ensuring that seals are intact, and verifying that hinges operate smoothly. Snowdonia Fire Protection's maintenance services encompass a thorough assessment of all critical elements, ensuring that fire doors remain in optimal condition. Even better, we continuously strive to improve our commercial fire alarms and home security systems to better meet your needs.
