Protection against fire for up to 4 hours
Extended Fire Resistance Doorsets
The Firecel range of doorsets has been specifically designed
to meet the requirement for prolonged fire resistance for
periods of up to 240 minutes and to be as flexible as possible
to meet all the specifier’s visual requirements. The inherent
properties of Firecel steel doorsets eliminate the need for
intumescent seals as the metal expands with heat to seal
any gaps.
Performance
Fire resistance
Firecel doorsets have been successfully subjected to BS 476:
Part 22: 1987 fire testing allowing Fitzpatrick to certificate
60, 90, 120 and 240 minute assemblies. Fire rated products
are manufactured strictly in accordance with the CERTIFIRE
scheme.
Certification
Firecel doors are certified under the CERTIFIRE voluntary
certification scheme. CERTIFIRE is independent third
party product certification which is designed to enable
manufacturers to demonstrate a difference between
their products and those satisfying only the minimum
requirement.
The scheme is designed to give confidence to specifiers,
enforcement authorities and building owners and occupiers.
CERTIFIRE is recognised by regulatory authorities both in the
UK and overseas.
Testing
Fitzpatrick sponsors independent testing and assessment
for integrity as required by British Standard 476 part 22.
