What to Ask When Buying a Fire Door?
Before you commit, make sure you ask the right questions:
- Is the fire door third party certified? – if not – it’s not good enough.
- Is the entire doorset compatible and compliant? – It’s not just the leaf that matters when it comes to fire door safety – hinges, frames, seals, and glass (when applicable) should be fully tested as a system.
- Can the manufacturer prove traceability for their fire doors? – You need documentation that shows test evidence and certification.
- Is the glazing fire-rated and installed by a certified team? – At Deanta, every fire door is – and it’s all done in-house.
- How quickly can the fire doors be delivered? – We offer 3-week lead times as standard on FD30 and FD60 fire doors – many other companies don’t.

TECHNICAL DETAILS
Fire Door Technical Information
We are proud to be one of the UK’s largest internal door manufacturers, we lead the way in producing premium internal fire doors, that not only exceed safety standards but raise the bar on quality and design.
About EN 1634-1
All our internal fire doors are tested to EN 1634-1, the European standard for fire resistance.
We’ve conducted over 100 EN 1634-1 fire tests across a wide range of designs and configurations, backed by comprehensive Field of Application (FOA) reports. These reports demonstrate the scope of our certification and offer detailed technical evidence, something many manufacturers can’t provide.
What makes our EN 1634-1 testing different?
- Covers single and double fire doors, including internal doors with glass, over panels, and side screens
- Doors are tested with full traceability
- Door heights up to 3m and widths up to 1.5m available
Our fire doors don’t just meet the minimum standard, they exceed it, futureproofing your projects for changing regulations, including, the phase-out of BS 476 by 2029.
Acoustic Performance
Fire safety and sound control often go hand-in-hand – especially in residential, hospitality, and commercial environments.
Some Deanta fire doors are tested to meet Part E of the UK Building Regulations, achieving sound reduction ratings above 29dB
Whether you’re specifying internal double doors, fire rated doors with glass, or solid core options. Deanta’s range includes acoustic solutions that help reduce sound transmission while maintaining fire safety.
Plus, many of our acoustic fire doors are also PAS 24 certified and Secured by Design approved – offering security and performance in one.
Installation
Correct installation of fire doors is essential. Even fire doors tested to the highest standard will fail if they are not fitted and installed correctly. Deanta recommend that all fire doors are installed by a trained and competent professional.
All Deanta fire doors are tested as a complete system, including frame, hardware, seals, and configuration. To maintain certification:
- Installation must follow parameters set out in the Field of Application (FOA)
- The door must be fitted using the correct frame type, fixings, and certified hardware
- Seals and components must be placed precisely as tested
We supply installation guides, outlining instructions to fit fire doors whilst following compliance.
Key Message: Always install Deanta fire doors using qualified professionals who understand fire door testing, certification, and legal compliance.
Door Hardware
Every component matters. That’s why Deanta tests its fire doors with a wide variety of hardware configurations – ensuring full compatibility and certification under EN 1634-1.
The Field of Application (FOA) provides guidelines on what hardware can be paired with our fire doors.
Unlike other manufacturers, we’ve tested locks and latches without intumescent protection, reducing installation time and cost – without compromising on safety. However we still recommend the use of intumescent pads for locks and hinges for FD30 and FD60 fire doors.
Hinges
We specify BS EN Grade 13 certified butt hinges for all of our FD30 rated doors.
Approved Deanta butt bearing hinge spec:
- Size: 90-110 x 30-35 (additional size available)
- Intumescent pads – details given on datasheets
- Placement and quantity: Minimum 3, 120-180 from head of leaf, 150-250 from base of leaf, and 3rd placed centrally – 4 hinges are required for doors over 2400
This approach ensures seamless installation while keeping to strict fire performance criteria.

FAQ
Fire Door FAQ
We hope we’ve covered most questions, but if you have any others then please don’t hesitate to contact us.
What is a fire door?
A fire door is a specially designed internal door that resists the spread of fire and smoke for a specific period (typically 30 or 60 minutes). It’s a life-saving safety feature required by law in many buildings.
How do I know if I need a fire door?
Fire doors are typically required in certain areas of homes (like between a garage and house) and in all multi-occupancy buildings or commercial properties. Your architect, builder, or building inspector can advise based on current regulations. Please refer to the Government website for further info – Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022
Are Deanta fire doors certified?
Yes, all Deanta fire doors are third-party certified, which means they’ve been independently tested and verified to meet safety standards. We’re committed to full compliance and transparency.
Can I cut or trim a fire door?
Yes – but only within strict limits to maintain the fire certification.
- FD30 (FEATURE) fire doors can be trimmed by up to 30mm in total (maximum 15mm from any edge).
- FD60 (FEATURE) fire doors have much tighter tolerances and can only be trimmed by 1mm per edge.
- FD30 (FLUSH) fire doors can be trimmed by up to 6mm in total (maximum 3mm from any edge).
- FD60 (FLUSH) fire doors can be trimmed by up to 2mm in total (maximum 1mm from any edge).
Any trimming beyond these limits can invalidate the door’s certification and compromise safety. Always follow Deanta’s specific installation guidelines and speak to your supplier or installer before making any adjustments.
Do fire doors come with glass panels?
Yes, and at Deanta, all our glass fire doors use fire-rated glass. We handle all glazing in-house and use Pilkington fire glass, ensuring every component meets fire resistance standards.
Can I paint or varnish a fire door?
Yes, but only with approved finishes and as per our guidelines. Incorrect finishes can impact the fire performance. We offer prefinished options for peace of mind. If you have a specific question related to finishing your fire door, please reach out to our customer service team.
What hardware is needed for a fire door?
Hinges, closers are essential hardware and are required as they play a vital role in ensuring the fire door performs as required. Latches, locks, environmental seals, viewers and letterboxes are optional.
Do I need door frames as well?
Yes, a fire door is only effective when installed as part of a complete fire doorset which includes; frames, seals, and hardware. Deanta offers fully certified doorsets for this reason.
What is the difference between a fire door and a fire doorset?
A fire door is just the leaf; a doorset includes the door, frame, ironmongery, seals, and certification as a complete tested unit. Deanta fire doorsets are fully tested and compliant.
