The purpose of fire doors in all cases is to allow safe egress from a space, automatically closing when necessary, shielding escape routes from the adverse impacts of fire, which encompass smoke, gases, and flames.
Additionally, fire doors may serve to limit the supply of oxygen, potentially curbing the fire’s ability to spread rapidly.
Fire doors should undergo inspection at a minimum interval of every six months. However, if the door is located in a high-traffic area or experiences frequent usage, it is advisable to conduct more frequent checks, as signs of wear and tear may manifest sooner with increased use.
