Chinese Standard Fireproof Door: Reliable Protection for Global Projects
Introduction
A Chinese standard fireproof door is designed and manufactured according to the GB 12955-2008 and related national standards, ensuring safety, compliance, and durability. These doors are tested for fire resistance, smoke control, and structural stability. In recent years, Chinese fireproof doors have gained strong global recognition because of their cost-effectiveness, quality certifications, and adaptability to diverse building projects.
YK Door Industry Co., Ltd., with more than two decades of manufacturing experience, supplies Chinese standard fireproof doors that meet both domestic GB standards and international requirements such as UL, CE, and BS. Our projects in Asia, Africa, and Europe prove that Chinese fireproof doors can combine affordability with world-class performance.
What Is a Chinese Standard Fireproof Door?
Chinese standard fireproof doors are certified under the GB fire resistance classification system, which defines ratings such as Class A (≥90 minutes), Class B (≥60 minutes), and Class C (≥30 minutes). Unlike regular doors, they incorporate fire-resistant cores, steel or wood panels, and intumescent strips to delay the spread of flames and smoke.
Example: In a large-scale residential project in Shenzhen, YK Door Industry delivered over 3,000 Class B fireproof doors. These doors achieved a 60-minute fire resistance and passed local fire inspection seamlessly, helping the developer obtain occupancy approval without delays.
Materials and Design Options
Chinese standard fireproof doors are manufactured in a variety of materials, making them versatile for different project types:
-
Steel Fireproof Doors: Strong, impact-resistant, ideal for warehouses and factories.
-
Wooden Fireproof Doors: Preferred in residential and hospitality projects for their aesthetics.
-
Composite Doors: Blending steel panels with rock wool or perlite cores for balanced insulation and weight.
-
Glass Fireproof Doors: Often installed in offices and commercial centers to combine safety with visibility.
Example: YK supplied steel fireproof doors with insulation cores for an industrial complex in Ethiopia. The doors met both GB and local standards, offering protection in a region where high humidity could affect inferior door types.
Compliance and Certification
Chinese standard fireproof doors undergo strict testing:
-
Fire Resistance Testing: Integrity and insulation performance under continuous flame exposure.
-
Smoke Leakage Testing: Ensures effective smoke control during fire incidents.
-
Durability Testing: Evaluates door stability under repeated use.
YK Door Industry ensures that every door complies with GB 12955, while also offering models tested to EN 1634-1 and UL 10C. This dual compliance supports export projects, giving international contractors confidence in procurement.
Example: In a hospital project in the Middle East, our GB-certified Class A doors were accepted after additional UL verification, proving the versatility of Chinese standards in international tenders.
Applications in Real Projects
Chinese standard fireproof doors are widely used across sectors:
-
Residential Projects: Apartment complexes and housing developments.
-
Commercial Buildings: Shopping malls, office towers, and retail stores.
-
Public Infrastructure: Schools, airports, and government facilities.
-
Industrial Sites: Manufacturing plants, warehouses, and logistics hubs.
Example: In a Nigerian government office project, YK’s Class C wooden fireproof doors provided 30-minute fire resistance. The combination of low cost and reliable certification made the project both affordable and compliant.
