FAQs About Our Steel Fire-Rated Doors
Check out the essential information below for more guidance on our fire-rated security products.
What’s the difference between fire doors and emergency doors?
Each of these doors provides a unique function regarding fire safety:
- Fire doors: Designed to seal fire within particular rooms to stop it from spreading. Essentially, external and internal fire doors compartmentalise a building to contain the fire.
- Emergency doors: Fire escape doors enable you to exit the premises quickly and are typically installed on the building’s exterior entrances.
Which entrances require fire doors?
UK regulations specify which entrances require fire doors, depending on the building type. Generally, fire doors are required for:
- Escape routes, which help create a quick exit
- Internal compartments are designed to reduce the spread of fire
- Flat entrance doors separate communal areas from individual apartments
- High-risk areas, which may prevent access to exit routes
What maintenance do fire doors and emergency doors require?
In addition to handling the fire doors installation, Dasco provides a range of inspection and maintenance services for all our entrance solutions to ensure the materials last. Some common requirements for commercial fire doors include:
- Lubricating automatic closing components
- Replacing damaged smoke seals
- Realigning doors for smooth functioning
- Cleaning the doors and components
- Inspecting for damage such as warping and corrosion
- Ensuring emergency signs are clearly visible
Do I need a fire-rated roller shutter door instead of a steel fire door?
Not always. Fire-rated roller shutter doors are widely used in commercial and industrial settings to compartmentalise buildings. They slow the spread of fire, and so do our steel fire doors. Our E120 and EW120-rated doors are certified to provide up to 120 minutes of protection against fire, heat radiation and gas.
Beyond fire containment, our doors also support acoustic performance, thermal upgrades, glazed or louvred panels, and optional PAS 24 security certification. These are functionalities that a fire door shutter typically cannot provide on its own. For many premises, a correctly specified steel fire door removes the need for a separate shutter entirely. Speak to our team, and we’ll confirm the right solution for your building.
