Fire doors are designed to prevent the spread of fire in an emergency and to keep escape and rescue routes free of smoke. They thus form an important pillar in the fire protection of most buildings.
Consequently, the professional installation of fire doors is also essential for building safety. Incorrect installation of fire doors can have serious consequences. Learn more about regulations, costs and our service for the installation of fire doors in your building.
When is it necessary to install fire doors?
The installation of a fire door is required if (state) building regulations, special building regulations or the fire protection concept demand fire protection closures in a building. Alternatively, fire protection doors and curtains can also be installed as fire protection closures.
Good to know: The building regulations specify which fire door you have to install. Our experts will be happy to help you make the right choice of fire doors in your building - without compromising on aesthetics.
What are the installation regulations for fire doors?
The installation of fire doors is subject to various guidelines and projects. Furthermore, the installation of fire doors depends on the suitability and type of building wall (concrete, brick or drywall). In addition, the individual manufacturer's specifications must be observed.
Typical mistakes when installing fire doors are:
- Incorrect installation of the door frame
- Incorrect back blocking of the door frame
- Use of non-approved material for the back-bracing of the door frame and other fastenings.
- Missing gasket or gaskets without manufacturer's approval
- Use of assembly foam without manufacturer's approval
Who is allowed to install fire doors?
In principle, anyone can install a fire door as long as the installation instructions are followed. However, it is recommended to have the installation of fire doors carried out by a certified specialist company. This ensures that the installation regulations for your fire doors are met and that the frame, fire door, seals and possible additions (e.g. hold-open systems) are installed properly.
Good to know: Incorrect installation of fire doors can lead to the loss of insurance cover in the event of a fire.
