Commercial Fire Doors Throughout Jefferson & Jasper Counties, Texas

Fire Door Installation in Beaumont, Nederland & Surrounding Areas

An uncontained fire can sound the death knell for a business. You have worked hard and invested significant resources into building your business, and seeing all your efforts go up in smoke isn’t something any business owner wants to experience. Fortunately, you don’t have to. Fire doors are an easy-to-install solution that can contain fires and prevent them from spreading. When a fire breaks out, rolling steel doors can be dropped quickly. This allows staff, clients, and contractors to safely exit the property while buying your business time until first responders arrive to extinguish the flames.

What’s Inside a Fire Door

Fire doors can incorporate many types of materials that are designed to retard the spread of fire. These materials include glass, gypsum, vermiculite, steel and aluminum. Most doors are either solid metal or a combination of materials that are designed to maximize thermal resistance. Further, fire doors have specialized hardware and seals that are designed to contain gases, smoke and heat. Through the use of gaskets and weatherstripping, ball-bearing hinges, and smoke seals, fire doors provide an efficient and effective barrier to flames.

Fire doors are not necessarily fireproof. Many are designed and rated to provide thermal protection for a set period of time, under a defined set of conditions. This is because fire doors are not designed to stop fires; they are designed to slow their spread throughout the structure.

Choosing the Right Fire Door

It is crucial to select a fire door that is constructed from the right materials. It must also be the appropriate thickness. If the materials are wrong or the door is too thin, then it will not provide sufficient protection. Determining the right door requires considering what chemicals and fuels are present, the building layout and the general construction of the building. These critical factors can determine door success or failure, so you will want to enlist the assistance of a qualified professional when making your decision.
