Not all steel doors are fire-rated, and not all fire-rated doors are made of steel.<\/h3>\n

A steel door can be fire-rated or not depending on its composition. A steel fir-rated door is filled with a fire-proof material<\/b> like rockwool, and is sealed all around the frame with intumescent seal<\/b> that expands when it comes in contact with fire in order to hold it back and stop it from spreading.<\/p>\n

Fire doors also have an identification label <\/b>on the corner where the hinges are. The label may say \u201cEI2 (t) C5\u201d<\/b> if a door is certified according to European standards. In this case it might also say \u201cCE\u201d if the door is CE listed<\/b>. Or it can say UL (t) if the door is certified according to American standards. \u201cT\u201d being the minutes of fire resistance.<\/p>\n

A fire rated steel door is usually equipped with a door closer<\/b>, that helps to keep the door shut, and a panic bar<\/b> when the door opens to a staircase or if it is a fire escape door.<\/p>\n
