FAQs

What does FD30 mean?

FD30 indicates that the door has been tested to provide at least 30 minutes of fire resistance when exposed to direct fire.

Does this door come with hinges?

No, this door is supplied as a door blank without pre-drilled holes or hardware, allowing for full customization.

Can I trim this door to fit my frame?

While minor trimming is possible, you must ensure that you do not remove too much material, as this can affect the fire rating and integrity of the door.

Is this door suitable for external use?

No, the Mexicano Internal Fire Door is designed exclusively for internal use within a building.

Are intumescent strips required?

Yes, for a door to be considered a fire door in situ, it must be installed with compliant intumescent seals in accordance with local building regulations.

Troubleshooting

Door is binding or scraping against the frame

Check if the hinges have loosened; tighten or adjust them. If the door still rubs, you may need to plane small amounts of wood from the edge, ensuring you maintain the necessary fire seal clearance.

Difficulty installing hardware

Use a professional-grade router or a sharp wood chisel and a paper template. Ensure all hardware is positioned to avoid compromising the structural integrity of the fire-resistant core.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Certified 30-minute fire resistance for enhanced safety
  • Sturdy construction ensures long-term durability
  • Versatile design fits multiple interior aesthetics
  • Allows for full customization of door hardware

Cons

  • Requires professional carpentry for hardware installation
  • Heavy weight requires robust hinge selection
  • No pre-finished hardware openings can increase installation time

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed by a competent individual. Given its fire-rated nature, ensure you comply with local building regulations regarding gap sizes around the perimeter (typically 3mm). When handling the door, avoid dragging it across abrasive surfaces to prevent finish damage. Maintenance is simple: wipe down with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that could degrade the finish. If you plan to paint or varnish, ensure you use products compatible with the door's current finish and seal any edges trimmed during installation to maintain fire protection.
