The Ultimate Guide To Fire Doors
The 5 Critical Points To Consider
2
Third-Party Specification
A fire door should have a proper certification
that makes it fit to be used in an emergency. A
fire door without a fire-resistant rating and
approval is of no use. Fire doors must align with
the standards of BWF or British Woodworking
Federation as well as under European Unions
Construction Products Regulations. All the parts
like hinges, seals, leaf, locks, closures, etc
must be third-party certified.
3
Compliant Door Hardware and Ironmongery
Fire doors Ireland are not simply about a door.
They comprise various components and all should
be by sourcing door ironmongery that is
third-party certified. A fire door needs
compliant door hardware and ironmongery to
maintain fire safety. A fire door should have
the self-closing ability that should comply with
door hardware.
4
Ensure Accessibility
A fire door must be easy to access. If it is
difficult to be accessed by the residents, it is
of no use and needs removal. With the help of an
adjustable power closer, the device can have the
closing force adjusted according to the
requirements. This will minimize the opening
force.
5
Prevent Tampering
Tampering can happen in any part of the building
accidentally or intentionally. This can disrupt
the working of a fire door which can lead to
severe consequences during a fire. Door arms are
more likely to get tampered with. Specified units
with concealed fixings eliminates the risk of
tampering.
6
Communicate With Your Manufacturer
It is crucial to have the right information from
your manufacturers. The working of fire doors
Ireland depends on correct information and
regulations. Reputable manufacturers always
provide comprehensive data and make informed
decisions.
