Fireproof Door – Safety solution for modern construction projects
What is a fire door?
A fire door is a type of door specially designed and manufactured to limit the spread of fire, smoke, and heat for a certain period (30, 60, 90, or 120 minutes), thereby creating a safe escape route and minimizing damage to people and property in the event of a fire.
Structure of fire doors
Depending on the type and fire rating, doors can be made from various materials. However, a standard fire door typically includes:
Outer layer made of galvanised steel or electrostatic painted steel sheet 0.8mm – 1.2mm thick, which helps prevent rust, withstand force, and maintain shape at high temperatures.
Inner core made of insulation material such as fire-resistant mineral wool (rockwool), honeycomb paper, magnesium oxide, or ceramic… depending on the required fire resistance level.
Self-expanding fire seal installed on the frame or door leaf, which expands when exposed to heat, preventing smoke and fire from entering.
Specialized accessories: hydraulic door closer, emergency exit lock, panic bar, heat-resistant hinges, flush bolts – all meeting fire safety standards.
Classification of fire doors by fire resistance duration
60-minute fire door: commonly used in apartment buildings, offices.
90-minute fire door: suitable for commercial centers, schools, factories.
120-minute fire door: for areas requiring high safety such as chemical warehouses, large industrial plants.
Applications of fire doors
Fire doors are often installed in critical locations to control fire and smoke:
Stairwell escape routes
Doors separating technical areas
Generator room doors, transformer room doors
Warehouse doors, flammable material storage areas
Server room doors, data centers
