subject: Fire Rated Steel Doors and Proper Installation [print this page]
The performance of a fire door depends on more than the door leaf itself. Fire rated steel doors must be part of a suitable, tested assembly that includes compatible frames, hardware, seals, and correct installation details. Changes to any of these elements may affect the assembly’s intended fire performance.
Before installation, contractors should review the approved specifications, opening dimensions, fixing requirements, and manufacturer instructions. They should also ensure that the finished door operates correctly and that any required closing mechanisms and seals are fitted as specified. Inspection and ongoing maintenance help preserve the intended functionality.
