Fire doors are a crucial part of safety design for buildings. A fire
door serves two purposes: it separates the fire and its gasses
from people trying to escape the blaze, and it limits the fire’s
expansion, making it easier to control and extinguish.
The point is that not all fire doors are alike. Understanding their
differences will help you select or approve the right doors
suited to their locations. Factually, there are classes dictating
this.
Stability: This measures how well the door itself holds up,
looking at gaps that form on the door’s surface. A common
stability failure would be the door handle mechanism melting
and exposing its hole.
Class E: Class rankings are not a scale and Class E doors are
actually a lower tier. These doors will maintain integrity,
stability and insulation for 30 minutes. A common use for these
are providing access to fire escapes. A Class E door can have a
small viewing panel.
Fire doors are rated in a class, only after they have been tested
for it. In South Africa, approval is critical to ensure the doors
you use are rated to do the job they promise. It is also wise to
consult safety experts on the best door for your needs.
