Door Flat

Comply with new fire regulations with composite fire doors

House fires can be absolutely devastating and while you might think that it'll never happen to you, with the amount of electrical equipment we have in our homes and our generally overloaded plug sockets, it could happen to any one of us. The important thing is not to worry about the ‘ifs' and the ‘coulds' but to instead focus on methods of prevention and how to react if you do find yourself in that situation.

The first thing to remember is to switch off all appliances at the plug when they are not in use, whether you think the appliance could cause a fire or not is irrelevant as all sources of electricity have the capacity to combust. So from irons to mobile phone chargers and televisions, all plugs should be switched off when not in use. The second thing to remember is not to use candles near curtains or other flammable material and not to leave them unattended even for a few seconds, the results can be devastating and fire spreads extremely quickly.

Thirdly, your windows and doors act as barriers to the spread of fire and smoke so don't see them simply as tools to separate different rooms in the house and add privacy, see them as your key to surviving a house fire. All doors in the house should be kept shut when you are not at home or during the night when you're most vulnerable, in new builds most doors will give between 30 and 60 minutes resistance to fire, giving you valuable time to find a way out to safety. If you don't like sleeping with your bedroom door shut, just make sure the main connecting doors in your house or flat are closed instead.

Double glazed windows help to stop the spread of fire and the same is true of composite front doors and composite back doors, which are thick, strong and coated in a fire resistant glass reinforced plastic to withstand heat. Apart from external doors it is essential to invest in fire doors for connected, shared or communal areas within blocks of flats and businesses and in doing so comply with fire regulations. The best way to do this is to buy FD30 fire doors from a reputable composite door company that can advise you on the best one and even fit the doors to the highest standard. The 44mm thickness keeps fire at bay for long enough to make sure you find a way out and don't forgot to swat up on exit points as soon as you move into a house, flat or business premises.

Composite Arched Doors are an essential home accessory, protecting you against the spread of a potentially fatal house fire so why not add a design element by looking into buying front doors online for your home or workplace.
