What is a fire rated door?
A fire rated door is a specially engineered door designed to resist the spread of fire and smoke for a specific period of time, typically 20, 45, 60, or 90 minutes. These doors are tested and certified to meet fire safety standards and are commonly used in homes, basements, apartments, commercial buildings, and corridors.
What makes a door fire rated?
A door becomes fire rated when it is tested and certified by a recognized fire testing authority and installed as part of a complete fire-rated assembly.
Key features that make a door fire rated include:
- Solid core construction (wood, steel, or mineral core)
- Fire-rated hinges and hardware
- Certified fire-resistant materials
- Intumescent seals or smoke seals
- Fire rating label or certification tag
Fire rated doors are manufactured to meet recognized fire safety standards used in Canada.
How do you tell if your door is a fire door?
Every code-compliant fire door in Canada must have a permanent label affixed to the hinge edge. This label identifies: the certification body (ULC, Intertek, etc.), the fire rating in minutes like 20 min, 45 min, 60 min, standard (CAN/ULC-S104 or NFPA), and the manufacturer. Without this label, a door cannot be considered fire-rated — even if it appears identical to a labelled door. Never remove or paint over the label.
Does prehung come with Self Closing hinges?
Every prehung fire-rated door comes with 2 Self Closing & 1 bearing Satin Nickel hinges or Matt Black hinges for Fire code. These hinges are also UL Certified.
What doors have to be fire rated?
Doors that separate living spaces from high-risk areas usually must be fire rated.
Common examples include:
- Garage entry doors
- Basement entry doors
- Side entry doors
- Apartment unit doors
- Stairwell doors
- Furnace or mechanical room doors
- Corridor doors in multi-unit buildings
These requirements help contain fire and protect escape routes.
How many types of fire rated doors are there?
Fire rated doors are categorized by fire resistance time. The most common ratings include:
- 20-minute fire doors
- 45-minute fire doors
- 60-minute fire doors
- 90-minute fire doors
- 3-hour fire doors (commercial)
Residential homes typically use 20-minute fire rated doors.
