Fire-Rated Door Furniture for Certified Protection

Whether you’re maintaining an existing facility or specifying a new build project, choosing the correct fire-rated door ironmongery is essential. These products help control the spread of fire, maintain compartmentation, and preserve safe exit routes. They have undergone fire testing from 30 minutes up to 60 minutes or sometimes 2 hours on timber doors. 

Make sure to check the fire rating and test evidence of the doorset and its components before selecting the right ironmongery for your fire doors. Also, any local or national regulatory requirements, such as the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, applicable to England and Wales.

Look for products CE marked and tested to the relevant performance standards, including:

• BS EN 12209 for locks and latches
• BS EN 1935 for door hinges
• BS EN 1154 for door closers
• BS EN 1155 for electromagnetic door closers and door holders
• BS 476 Part 22 / BS EN 1634-1 for fire resistance testing

Many items also carry a UKCA mark and Certifire approval, giving additional assurance that they meet the highest fire protection benchmarks.

What’s Included in Fire Door Ironmongery Essentials?

This category offers the core components needed to complete or upgrade a compliant doorset. Products support 30-minute and 60-minute fire rated doors, depending on installation and specification.

Use them in commercial offices, schools, healthcare settings, residential buildings, and public facilities. Install alongside any required intumescent protection and door seals for a complete solution.

Core product groups include:

• Fire Rated Hinges

Tested and certified to BS EN 1935, available in grade 11 or higher. Fire door hinges should be used in sets of three to maintain door integrity. Ensure you check the quantity and fitting position of hinges for your specific installation.

• Locks and Latches

Fire-rated door locks with models suitable for internal and external doors. Includes sashlocks, deadlocks, bathroom locks, and latches compliant with BS EN 12209.

• Fire Door Closers

Power sizes EN 3 and above, as required for fire rated doors. Adjustable closing speeds and electromagnetic hold open or swing free models available.

• Lever Handles and Fire Escape Door Furniture

Options suitable for use on fire exit routes, locking and non-locking doors. For final exit doors, use panic exit devices to facilitate safe egress under emergency conditions. Check room/building occupancy details before selecting panic or emergency escape hardware.

Fire Rated Ironmongery You Can Rely On

Correct specification of passive fire safety and fire door ironmongery requirements is not just about legal compliance.

The right product selection for your built environment:

• Limits property damage in the event of a fire
• Prevents the spread of fire and smoke
• Maintains fire compartmentation
• Protecting lives by supporting safe evacuation
• Provides a clear route of entry for fire rescue services

Fire doors protect hazardous areas, form barriers between flat entrances and corridors, and protect stairwells; they can be life-critical. Without compatible and certified components, a fire-rated door may fail under test conditions or in the real world. Make sure you’re protecting what matters when selecting your ironmongery.
