Collection: Fire Doors

The best part? You can rest assured that your doors will reduce the risk of injury to your loved ones if you’re in an unfortunate house fire situation.

Fire doors don’t have to be boring, plain, or simple. With A Wood Idea, you can choose anything from contemporary-style internal doors to traditional internal doors. Whichever style you pick, all the doors in this range are fire-rated, protecting you, your property, and its inhabitants.

Our most popular fire-rated interior doors include our Oak Belize, London Solid Primed, and Seville Glazed Solid Primed.

All of the doors in our range:

• Contain fire and smoke, preventing them from spreading.
• Protect your property’s occupants, giving them extra time to exit the building.
• Comply with legal requirements to meet UK fire safety standards.

Whether you’d prefer a glazed fire door or a panelled fire door, we have every style of interior door to suit your needs.

How does an internal fire door work?

Internal fire doors differ from the usual interior doors. This is because they’re specifically designed to contain the spread of fire and smoke within a building, giving your loved ones time to leave the property safely. For more information, you can check out our Ultimate Guide to Fire Check Doors.

It’s common to think that fire doors are bulky and visually unappealing, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Our range of fireproof interior doors combines safety with style, so you can protect your home without compromising aesthetics.

Here are some other features that make fire doors worth the investment:

1. Fire-resistant core

Fire doors are made with a fire-resistant core. This slows the spread of fire and heat, so the door will maintain its structure for a specific time in the event of a fire.

2. Intumescent strips

Fire doors are fitted with intumescent strips, which expand when exposed to heat. This helps seal the gaps between the door and the door frame, preventing fire and smoke from passing through the edges of the door.

3. Smoke strips

Many fire doors include smoke seals, which block smoke from infiltrating other areas of your property. Smoke inhalation is one of the leading causes of harm and injury in the event of a fire.

4. Tested fire ratings

Our fire doors are tested against industry standards and given a fire rating, which indicates the number of minutes the door can withstand fire and heat before deteriorating.

For example, our Mexicano and Sydney Black internal doors have an FD30 fire rating, meaning they can provide 30 minutes of fire and heat protection before deteriorating.

5. Self-closing mechanisms

Fire doors often have a self-closing feature which allows them to remain closed when not in use, as an open fire door cannot contain fire or smoke.

6. Heat resistance

The materials used to create our fire-rated interior doors are designed to resist high temperatures, preventing the door from catching fire or breaking apart under extreme heat.

Can anyone install a fire door in the UK?

Poor fire door installation can make your new fire door ineffective, compromising safety and regulatory compliance. Whoever installs your fire door should be trained and experienced in fire door installation.

We specifically recommend contracting those accredited by schemes like BM Trada Q-MARK or FIRAS. This will ensure that your fire door is installed in line with Approved Document B of the Building Regulations, keeping all your fire door safety features working efficiently.
