Double fire doors are designed to provide a robust barrier that prevents the spread of fire and smoke, helping protect building occupants and critical assets. The double-leaf design offers a wider opening, allowing for smoother and faster evacuation routes in case of emergencies.

Using double fire doors is necessary for buildings that must meet specific regulations, particularly in commercial and public spaces. These doors are rigorously tested to ensure they meet required fire resistance ratings, supporting regulatory compliance and providing peace of mind.

As a UK-based manufacturer, Sentry Doors combines local expertise with high-quality craftsmanship to deliver reliable fire-rated double doors. Manufacturing within the UK ensures consistent quality control, shorter lead times, and adherence to British regulations.

Types of Double Internal Fire Doors

Fire Door Double Leaf

Double-leaf fire doors offer an ideal solution for larger openings and spaces that require wider access, such as commercial buildings or facilities with high traffic flow. These doors consist of two panels that can open independently, providing flexibility and ease of access when needed.

Bespoke Fire-Rated Double Doors

Our customisable fire-rated double doors provide the versatility to meet both safety and design needs. At Sentry Doors, we offer a range of customisations, from finishes and colours to hardware and sizes, to ensure these doors blend seamlessly with your interior decor.

Glazed & Non-Glazed Fire Doors

Glazed double fire doors are an excellent choice for spaces needing both fire protection and natural light. The glazed versions of our fire-rated double doors feature fire-rated glass or vision panels that allow visibility and brightness while maintaining safety standards.

Installation & Maintenance of Fire Rated Double Doors

Proper installation and maintenance of fire-rated double doors are essential to ensure their effectiveness in preventing the spread of fire and smoke within a building. During installation, the doors must be fitted by professionals who understand the specific fire-resistance requirements, as even slight misalignments can compromise their capabilities.

Once installed, conducting routine maintenance of your double fire doors is key to maintaining compliance with safety standards. This includes regular inspections for signs of wear, checking seals and hinges, and confirming that closing mechanisms function smoothly.
