Hinged Fire Doors
Fire doors are manufactured to comply with AS1905.1, in a range of sizes and finishes, and are tested to AS1530.4. The doors are available in 2 types.
- “Maxi”, 45 to 47mm in thickness, suitable for single doors, pairs of doors, double action and sliding doors. Fire Resistance Levels (FRL) from 30 minutes to 4 hours.
- “Mini”, 36 to 38mm in thickness, only suitable for single door applications, up to 2 hour FRL.
Hardware and Seals
To Comply with AS1905.1, all hinged fire doors must be self closing and self latching. (no latching required on double action doors). To achieve this, fire doors must be fitted with the correct fire rated hardware, comprising heavy duty hinges, latching device and door closer. Pairs of doors will require a sequential closing device and concealed autobolt, as well as a closer on each leaf. Fire rated roller bolts can be used where locking of doors is not required.
Smoke seals are not required on fire doors to comply with AS1905.1, but may be necessary depending on the building surveyor or fire engineer’s requirements.

Both Maxi and Mini fire doors can be faced with an extra 6mm thickness of MDF, suitable for routing a pattern on the face of the door, or solid timber panelling, ready for staining.
Fire doors also have good acoustic properties, and with various combinations of seals and steel sheeting, can attain ratings of 30rw up to 39rw.
Fire door frames are usually pressed metal, but timber or MDF frames can also be used. There are specific size requirements for non metal frames.
All fire door frames must be backfilled to comply with AS1905.1-2015
FRL on fire doors is related to the wall construction. Concrete or masonry, up to 4 hours. Plaster stud walls up to 2 hours.
Fire Door Clearances
To comply with AS1905.1-2015, clearance between the door and frame, top and both sides, not more than 3mm.
Clearance between the bottom of the door and finished floor must be min 3mm and maximum of 10mm”
Maximum distance from the underside of the door to the structure is 25mm.
It is common to have non rated doors in buildings that need to be converted to fire rated doors. This could be because of renovations, change of regulations or simply human error.
Most times, existing frames do not need to be removed, but modified so fire doors can be fitted.
