A Fire Door is what kind of door?
A Fire Door is a door set that can withstand very high temperatures and inhibit fire spread for a specified time varying from 30 minutes to up to 2 hours. Fire Doors mainly differ from other doors by the composition of the fire-resistant material-galvanized steel, gypsum, or timber. The doors are also fitted with intumescent seals that swell when subjected to heat. These seals fill the gaps between the door and the frame so that fire and smoke would lose track of their way through these small openings.
