More about the 6 Panel Fire Doors Collection

6 Panel fire doors are a type of fire-resistant door specifically designed to help contain the spread of fire and smoke within a building. These doors are typically made with a series of panels, which can be either flush or raised, giving them a distinctive appearance compared to other types of fire doors. We've got a variety of designs in stock from solid wood doors to moulded panel doors for a more traditional appearance, so you'll be sure to find the perfect fire door which meets your needs.

Why fit a Fire Door?

Panel fire doors are commonly used in commercial and residential buildings to provide fire protection between different areas or compartments, such as stairwells, corridors and rooms. Fitting a fire door is crucial for several reasons in somparison to a standard door, primarily related to safety and legal compliance.

Fire doors are designed to slow down the spread of fire and smoke, allowing occupants more time to evacuate the building safely. By compartmentalizing a building, fire doors help maintain a safe escape route and reduce the risk of injury or death due to fire.

Fire doors help contain fires within specific areas, minimizing the extent of fire and smoke damage. This can significantly reduce the cost of repairs and restoration after a fire event. Not on that, many insurance providers require fire doors to be installed and properly maintained.

Fire Door Ratings

Panel fire doors are tested and rated according to their ability to resist fire for a certain period, usually expressed in minutes (e.g., 30, 60 minutes). The specific rating required for a 6 panel fire door depends on the building regulations applicable to the structure in which it is installed. Regular maintenance and inspection are essential to ensure that panel fire doors remain effective in case of a fire.

All our 6 panel internal fire doors have a minimum fire resistance of 30 minutes.

6 Panel Fire Door Construction

6 Panel interior fire doors are constructed using fire-resistant materials, such as fire-rated solid core materials, and often feature an intumescent seal that expands when exposed to high temperatures, providing an extra barrier against the spread of fire and smoke.

A doors construction contributes to the interior fire rating, for example the denser the construction to higher the fire rating, making them highly durable due to their added strength.

6 Panel Fire Door Designs

We stock a variety of door designs from some of the UK's leading distributors. One of the most popular is the DX60's Style FD30 fire door, which features a 6 panel classic design from the 1960's era. If you're looking for some natural light, there are various glazed fire doors on offer like the Toronto Oak FD30 fire door, with attractive diagonal panels.

Glazed fire doors incorporate fire-rated glass panels, allowing for natural light transmission and visibility while still providing the necessary protection. The glass used in an FD30 door is specifically designed to withstand high temperatures and resist the spread of fire.

There are different types of fire-rated glass, such as wired glass, ceramic glass, and laminated intumescent glass, each with its own rating and characteristics.

These seals expand when exposed to high temperatures, sealing gaps around the door's edges and preventing the spread of fire and smoke. They can be installed around the perimeter of the door or within the door frame.

Smoke Seals

Often used in conjunction with intumescent seals, smoke seals are designed to prevent the passage of smoke between the door and frame. They can be brush, fin, or blade-type seals.

How To Fit A Fire Door

Fitting a fire door requires precision and attention to detail to ensure its proper functioning in case of a fire. We recommend using a professional installer to ensure proper fitting. Here is a summary of the work they will cary out but we have a comprehensive article about replacing fire doors.

As a guide, the installer will remove the existing door, hinges, and hardware, protecting the door frame and surrounding area from damage during the removal process. If the existing frame has damage it will be repaired or replaced if necessary to ensure a secure fit for the fire door.

The installer will then measure the door frame and the fire door width and height to ensure a proper fit. If necessary, they'll carefully trim the fire door to size, maintaining the required clearances and ensuring an even gap around the edges - being sure not to compromise its fire-resistance rating.
