What is a Fire Door?
A fire door is a specially constructed door designed to resist the spread of fire and smoke between separate compartments of a building. As a specialist commercial fire door inspector London businesses depend on, Fyrup inspects, installs, and maintains fire doors across offices, retail units, hotels, schools, residential blocks, and industrial premises throughout the capital.
Fire doors must be able to withstand fire for a specified period (typically 30 or 60 minutes, denoted as FD30 or FD60) and should close automatically when released. They're constructed with fire-resistant materials and include essential components such as intumescent seals, appropriate hinges, and self-closing devices.
Properly installed and maintained fire doors are essential for building safety and are required by law in most commercial and multi-occupancy residential buildings across London.
