Fire Doors that work<\/h1>\n

When you see credentials such as those above \u2013 not only does it look impressive \u2013 it actually is impressive and it screams out that someone has taken the trouble to ensure that the product it describes has been tested as thoroughly as possible to ensure that it performs exactly as it should.<\/p>\n

\"Global<\/p>\n

All of the above text is taken straight from the web site of Door-stop International the providers of the suppliers of the \u201cFD 30s\u201d fire door to Global Door <\/a> – at Global Door our on-line reseller business of selling composite doors is built upon our ability to provide a quality product and service at a competitive price our working relationship with Door-stop goes back some ten years \u2013 they manufacture we vet and decide which of their products we will market on our web site. In the case of fire doors our customers asked if we could supply them, we checked out the market and decided that the \u201cFD30s\u201d was a door which both we and our customers could trust.<\/p>\n

A fire door that you can trust has become a very emotive issue in the wake of the Grenfell disaster and it is our opinion here at Global Door that this door falls firmly into that category, any visitor to our Fire Door web page<\/a> will note that we reproduce all of the certification and credentials used on the original Doorstop web site albeit in a slightly different format because we want our customers to be assured that they are buying a door that they can trust.<\/p>\n

A properly specified, installed and maintained fire door will <\/u>stop smoke spreading into other areas of the property allowing residents to escape \u2013 the correct testing of the door is essential and the BWF l (British Woodworking Federation ) logo and certification which is used on both Door-stop and Global web sites is your guarantee that you have a door which complies with the latest legislation and which will delay the spread of smoke and flame for the designated specification period of the door ie FD30s = 30 minutes.<\/p>\n

The BWF have produced an excellent video \u201cfreely available on YouTube\u201d which we have copied here and which gives an excellent guide as to what to look for when purchasing and installing a Fire Door.<\/p>\n
