FD30 Fire Doors

FD30 means the door is rated to resist the spread of fire for 30 minutes, the integrity period defined by the test standards BS 476: Part 22 and BS EN 1634-1. To perform as intended the door must be installed as a complete doorset with compatible intumescent seals and certified ironmongery, and kept in good working order.

FD60 gives 60 minutes of fire resistance and is specified for higher-risk locations, longer escape routes, and wherever a fire risk assessment, fire strategy or building control officer requires it. FD30 (30 minutes) covers the majority of residential and light-commercial openings — always follow the rating set out in your fire risk assessment.
