Fire Rated Interior Doors are designed to provide an added layer of protection in residential and commercial buildings by helping slow the spread of fire and smoke between interior spaces. They are a practical choice for areas such as furnace rooms, utility rooms, garages, basements and other locations where fire protection is an important consideration. Available in different styles, sizes and configurations, fire-rated interior doors can combine safety requirements with a clean, modern appearance. When selecting a fire-rated door, Canadian homeowners and contractors should check the required fire rating, frame compatibility, hardware and applicable building requirements for the specific installation.
