Fire Door Fire Resistance – Summary by YK Door Industry
Fire resistance is a critical feature of fire-rated door assemblies, which are essential for protecting lives and property during a fire. These assemblies, tested and certified to meet rigorous standards such as UL 10C and NFPA 252, ensure the door, frame, hardware, and glazing work together to contain flames, smoke, and heat for specific durations—commonly 20, 45, 60, 90, or 180 minutes.
At YK Door Industry, we emphasize the importance of adhering to building codes like NFPA 80, NFPA 101, the International Building Code (IBC), and the International Fire Code (IFC). Proper fire resistance ratings depend on the wall or partition rating, requiring coordinated selection to maintain overall fire safety integrity.
Additional factors such as temperature rise limits and smoke control are also key considerations in specifying the right product. Modern fire-rated assemblies often include specially tested glazing to allow visibility while meeting strict safety requirements.
YK Door Industry remains committed to delivering high-quality, code-compliant fire-rated door assemblies that safeguard occupants and minimize damage, providing peace of mind through tested reliability and professional expertise.
