Steel Fire Protection Doors
Steel fire doors maintain critical compartmentalisation in UK commercial and industrial buildings. They contain fires within designated zones and protect physical escape routes until the emergency services take control. Supplying the correct certified fire doorset ensures full compliance with strict UK fire safety regulations.
Purpose Built Steel Fire Doorsets
We supply purpose made steel fire rated doorsets built to exact structural measurements. This guarantees a perfect fit and removes dangerous installation risks on site. The doorsets use robust double skinned steel panels with leaf thicknesses ranging from 44mm to 65mm. You get heavy duty strength alongside proven fire resistance. Every unit arrives fully assembled from the factory. The hinges, hardware and weatherseals are already fitted for fast compliance.
Fire Ratings and EI Certification
Standard commercial applications normally require 60 minutes of fire resistance. We also supply industrial fire doors tested to 120 and 240 minutes for demanding environments. UK building specifications are shifting heavily towards strict EI certification. This means the doorset provides both fire integrity against flames and physical insulation against dangerous heat transfer. It stops extreme temperatures passing through the metal. All doors comply with British and European standards following independent UKAS accredited testing.
For example, the Teckentrup T60-FSA steel door uses a solid 62mm thick insulated leaf to deliver up to 120 minutes of integrity and 60 minutes of insulation under EN1634-1 testing. It offers some of the highest passive fire performance available today.
Why Choose Steel Over Timber?
- Exceptional durability in high traffic or external areas because steel will never warp
- Higher fire resistance capabilities achieving up to 240 minutes
- Dual certification for fire and physical security including PAS 24 or LPS 1175
- Slim frame profiles that easily accommodate fire rated glazing for modern interiors
Complete Certified Assemblies
You cannot mix components on a fire door. Every certified steel fire doorset includes a tested leaf with a mineral wool core, a heavy steel sub frame, intumescent strips to block smoke, a mandatory auto closing device and fire rated hardware. The entire assembly is tested as one complete unit to guarantee reliable operation in an emergency.
