Understanding Fire Door Legislation
Building regulations for domestic properties stipulate when fire doors should be used. They must be used when a two-storey house has a door leading from an integral garage into the house. Similarly, new build or renovated properties with three storeys or more, including loft conversions, must have FD30 fire doors to every habitable room from the stairwell. Property owners are legally required to install fire doors in all buildings except private homes.
Fire doors are categorised by FD (fire door) standards. The code is followed by a number which shows how many minutes of fire a door can withstand. The doors are tested to this level, and JB Kind’s full range of internal doors offers an FD30 option.
