Passive Fire Protection Fire Doors and Frames

Dorwerx supply all classes of fire doors (Class E, A, B and D) ranging from standard single to bespoke double doors, with all unique veneers/finishes. We utilise certified SABS door leaves and both timber and steel frames and will provide tags and certification for such. Dorwerx also offers a unique ‘door upgrade’ system ‘Doortect’, that involves the intumescent coating of solid timber doors to provide a certifiable 30-minute fire barrier. The coating is generally applied within our works, but can be applied on site and is available in white (for enamel over coating by others) or clear (for varnish finishing by others).

Passive fire stopping refers to the compartmentalisation and fire protection of a fire to enable tenants of a building to escape within a given time frame. Possibly the most important component to a passive fire stop solution is the doors that are designed to complement the system and contain a fire for a specified time rating. Dorwerx recognised a need within the industry for correctly specified, manufactured and installed doors and frames, to meet the specific requirements of each passive fire design. To this end Dorwerx will assist with specification and ensure fit for purpose products are installed or supplied to conform to these requirements.
