Commercial Fire Door Requirements

Laws and regulations can vary significantly across different jurisdictions, including states, cities, townships, and municipalities. It is crucial to consult with the relevant regulatory authorities to ensure that the door unit you plan to order and install complies with all applicable laws and regulations.

Key Considerations

When in the process of selecting a fire door, the first step should be determining whether it will be used for a commercial or residential application. Different types of doors are required for these two scenarios, so it’s essential to choose the right one for the specific needs. Additionally, it is imperative to thoroughly research and confirm the building codes that apply in the area. This step will help establish the exact specifications required for the door unit. Lastly, check whether a fire label is mandated, which can typically be found in your local building codes.

Basic Requirements for Fire Doors

Below is a list of fundamental requirements for fire doors. Keep in mind that this list may not cover all requirements, so it is essential to consult your local building codes for comprehensive guidance.

The unit must be self-closing.
The unit must be self-latching.
The unit must have a Label attached.
The Door Frame must have an attached or embossed Label.
The unit must have Steel Bearing Hinges.
The unit must have “Listed” Hardware.
If a Fire Door is held open, it must have a “UL-Listed”, heat fusible link or smoke detection device (or be tied into the fire alarm system).
Pairs of Fire Doors with astragals that require overlapping astragals should use a coordinator or open back strike for proper closing.
Pairs of Fire Doors required to meet Egress shall not be equipped with an astragal that inhibits the free use of either leaf.
For fire doors with Safe-Wie glass lite kits

The frame and glazing bead must be metal.
The glass must be Safe-Wire, not less than 1/4″ thick
The Maximum glass sizes allowed:

For a 20 minute rated door is a 1296 sq. in. per lite.
For a 45 minute rated door with a C or E label is a 1296 sq. in. per lite.
For a 60 minute rated door with a B label is a 100 sq. in. per lite.
For a 90 minute rated door with a B label is a 100 sq. in. per lite.
No glass is allowed in a 90 minute rated door with a D label.
No glass is allowed in a 3 hour rated door with an A label.

A Fire Door with a Louver requires a Fusible Link Louver.
No Louvers are allowed in a 20 Minute Rated Door.
No Louvers are allowed in fire-rated doors with lite kits.
No Louvers are allowed in doors with Panic Exit Hardware or Stairwells.
The maximum Fire-Rated louver size is 24″ x 24″.

Opening Types and Ratings

In the realm of commercial doors, frames, and hardware, their fire resistance is measured by the duration they can withstand fire under controlled testing conditions. Commercial codes typically mandate that door units must have a fire rating that is at least 75% of the rating assigned to the surrounding wall.

Description and Use	Wall Rating	Door and Frame Rating
Openings that separate buildings or divide a single building into designated fire areas	4 hours	180 minutes
Openings used in enclosures of vertical communication or egress through buildings (example: stairwells)	2 hours	90 minutes
Door and frame assemblies that divide occupancies in a building	1 hour	60 minutes
Openings in corridors or room partitions	1 hour	45 minutes
Opening where there is potential for severe fire exposure from the exterior of the building	2 hours	90 minutes
Opening that has the potential for moderate to light fire exposure from the exterior of the building	1 hour	45 minutes
Opening in corridors where smoke and draft control is required	1 hour	20 minutes

Exit Devices

Exit devices are used with doors that are in an exit path and may be commonly be referred to as Panic Hardware. Typically used in commercial applications like schools, hospitals, and government buildings, exit devices are necessary when a large number of people may need to exit the building fast. Most door units utilizing exit devices are outswing units.

Exit devices can be applied to single doors or double doors. If using a double door, astragals should not be used in true panic situations as it prohibits a timely exit due to the need to unlock the flushbolts. While it is not necessary, it is a good idea to have the doors as well as the frames reinforced. Exit Devices are available with a fire-rating and are required for used in a fire-rated unit.

Panic hardware can be a push bar or a crossbar. When a pushbar is pushed into the hardware base, the door unlatches from the frame. When the crossbar, sometimes referred to as a crashbar, is pushed down, it delatches from the frame.There are three models of exit devices available in both RIM and SVR.

Commercial Miscellaneous Accessories

In the area of commercial doors, a variety of accessories can be employed to enhance functionality and aesthetics. These additional components serve multiple purposes, from improving security and ease of use to reducing noise and ensuring proper installation.

Filler Plates

Commercial doors and jambs are often pre-prepped for hinges and strikes, but sometimes these prepped areas are not necessary. In such cases, primed steel filler plates can be attached to fill the gaps.

Stops and Silencers

Stops play a crucial role in preventing doors from swinging too far when opened, and they can be attached to either the door or the floor. The choice between a wall stop and a floor stop depends on factors such as the floor material and personal preference. For concrete floors, a wall stop might be preferred for easier installation. Additionally, silencers are used to minimize the noise generated when a door closes.
