Frequently Asked 5 Panel Doors Questions
How Old Are 5 Panel Doors?
The 5-panel door, a sophisticated version of the conventional 4-panel door, made its appearance in the 1890s and was widely used for around 30 to 40 years.
Its defining features include the use of various kinds of wood such as pine, fir, chestnut, ash, oak, and butternut, resulting in a one-of-a-kind natural finish not seen on other doors.
What Do Fire Doors Do?
Fire doors play a crucial role in protecting lives and reducing damage to buildings and neighbouring structures by:
- Confining the fire to the room where it originated
- Keeping clear escape routes, such as hallways, clear - giving building occupants more time to evacuate and ensuring easier access for firefighters
- Preventing further damage to the rest of the building, its contents, and neighbouring structures
What Are FD30 Fire Doors?
FD30 is a fire resistance classification indicating that a door can withstand fire for at least 30 minutes. After that, it's possible that the door may no longer be able to prevent the spread of fire.
While 30 minutes provides ample time for evacuation, it's not enough to gather belongings. It's crucial to emphasize that quick evacuation is key to safety.
Can I Wedge My Fire Door Open?
Fire doors must never be blocked open using props or wedges as this prevents the door from closing in the event of a fire.
A safe and compliant way to keep fire doors open is by installing a fire door holder or retainer. These devices can be easily attached to existing doors and allow them to be held open at any angle. They meet regulations as they automatically release the door when the fire alarm sounds, thus halting the spread of fire.
