Fire-Rated Doors and Fire Check Doors — Supply & Installation

Role of Fire-Rated Doors in a Building

In an integrated fire protection strategy, fire-rated doors work alongside compartmentation walls, hydrant and sprinkler systems, detection and alarms, and pressurised staircases. Their job is passive: to hold back fire and smoke long enough for occupants to evacuate and for emergency responders to reach the affected area.

Typical positions include staircase entries, lift lobbies where required, electrical and service shafts, plant rooms, storage areas and any opening across a rated compartment boundary.

Types of Doors Supplied and Installed

General categories handled by Decon on project scope. Actual leaf construction, seals, glazing and hardware follow the approved door schedule for each project.

Hardware and Accessories

Hardware type, make and specification are selected against the approved door schedule, consultant specification and applicable requirements for the project.

Decon’s Scope of Work

Opening Direction and Site Coordination

Opening direction, hardware set, fire rating and door configuration must follow the approved drawings, the consultant’s specification and the applicable fire and life-safety requirements for the building. These decisions are not made on site in isolation.

Decon’s site engineers coordinate with the project’s architect, PMC, fire consultant and MEP team so that door schedules, opening directions and hardware match the design intent before installation begins.
