What Is An FD30 Fire Door?

An FD30 fire door is a specially engineered door that offers 30 minutes of fire resistance, helping to slow the spread of flames and smoke in the event of a fire. Constructed from fire-resistant materials and fitted with intumescent seals, FD30 fire doors are designed to protect escape routes and provide vital time for occupants to evacuate safely. They are commonly used in both residential and commercial buildings to meet fire safety regulations.

FD30 Fire Door FAQs

What Are the Regulations for FD30 Fire Doors?

Fire doors are required to meet a number of standards. Chiefly, all parts of the door have to be fire-resistant, and the door must be clearly marked as a fire door. It must also feature intumescent seals around each part of the door, which will swell should a fire occur, keeping smoke from penetrating the door. All Sentry Doors’ FD 30 fire door sets meet regulations.
Do I Need FD30 or FD60 Doors?

FD30 fire doors are the most common kind of fire doors. However, in larger residential or commercial buildings, FD60 doors are often used, as these doors can resist fire for 60 minutes, and these larger buildings can take longer to evacuate. Need further advice on which to choose for your property? Our team is on hand to offer expert guidance and support.
Are FD30 door sets suitable for both residential and commercial use?

Yes, FD30 door sets are suitable for multiple settings, including both residential and commercial premises. At Sentry Doors, we manufacture internal, external, and communal FD30 doors that are fully compliant with fire safety regulations and customisable to match your building’s design. We work with markets including healthcare, social housing and education.
Does a 30 minute fire door need special installation or maintenance?

To ensure a 30 minute fire door performs effectively in a fire, it must be correctly installed by a competent professional. Regular inspections and maintenance are also essential to check components like seals, hinges, and closers. At Sentry Doors, our FD30 fire doors are designed for long-lasting performance, but proper fitting and upkeep are vital to ensure safety and compliance.
Where should FD30 fire doors be installed?

FD30 fire doors are typically installed in essential areas such as between kitchens and hallways, in apartment entrances, or along escape routes in commercial buildings. Their 30-minute fire resistance helps to contain fire and smoke, giving occupants more time to evacuate safely. Qualified fire risk assessors can advise where FD30 fire doors need to be installed.
