Oak Fire Doors

The Express Doors Direct Oak Fire Doors Range

We want our fire doors to be accessible to everyone; after all, you can’t put a price on safety. That’s why you’ll find that our oak fire doors start at very affordable prices.

We understand the need for style alongside safety; this is why our solid oak fire doors come in many styles such as panelled, or with glass inserts. Our glazed FD30 fire doors are designed to allow light to flow effortlessly through your home but are also fire-resistant to ensure maximum safety.

What Are Internal Fire Doors Made Out Of?

Internal fire doors contain a solid-core construction, made up of particleboard, chipboard, and usually solid wood/timber. An oak veneer is applied to the outside to give the appearance of natural, solid wood.

It can be difficult choosing the right FD30 fire door, but understanding what makes an internal fire door work so well can give you that added sense of security.

Fire doors are regulated to UK Building Regulation standards and are provided with an FD fire rating, FD30 for 30 minutes of protection, and FD60 fire doors for 60 minutes accordingly.

Increased safety does not mean you have to compromise on door style. Here at Express Doors Direct, we know the importance of fire doors within a building. That's why we design all of our FD30 fire doors with style in mind.

What is the difference between an FD30 fire door and an FD60 fire door?

An FD30 fire door is manufactured and regulated to withstand a minimum of 30 minutes of extreme heat. With the use of intumescent strips and sturdy materials, the construction of these doors is vital to withhold its fire rated standard.

Likewise, an FD60 fire door is manufactured to withstand a minimum of 60 minutes of fire protection. These are commonly used as external doors and undergo a similar construction.

Whether you need an FD30 fire door or FD60 fire door comes down to building regulations. For example, if your fire door is in a compartment wall separating two buildings then an FD60 fire door is required. However, if an escape route is streamlined and easily accessible, then you may only need an FD30 fire rated door.

Oak Fire Door Finishes

Here at Express Doors Direct, we stock a variety of oak door finishes to suit your every need.
