Yes, while designed for FD30 fire doors, it can be used for standard internal doors where a robust, high-quality timber frame is desired.
No, the set comes pre-routed to accept the strips, but the intumescent seals must be purchased separately based on the specific fire rating requirements.
Yes, the timber components can be cut down to fit smaller door openings, provided you maintain the integrity of the fire-rating assembly.
The timber thickness is 34mm, which provides the necessary structural rigidity for fire-door applications.
The surface is pre-planed and smooth, but a light sanding with fine-grit sandpaper is recommended for the best paint adhesion.
Check if the uprights were installed perfectly plumb. Use a level to verify vertical alignment and ensure the door hinges are properly recessed.
Ensure all sides of the timber were sealed with paint or varnish. If unfinished, moisture absorption can cause movement.
To install, start by trimming the uprights to the desired height according to your door frame measurement. Ensure the floor is level; if not, trim the bottom of the uprights accordingly. Secure the lining to the structural opening using appropriate masonry or timber screws, ensuring they are recessed below the wood surface and filled for a clean look. To maintain the set, apply a high-quality wood preservative or paint to all six sides—including the cut ends—before installation. This sealing process is critical to prevent the timber from warping or bowing due to changes in humidity. Keep the surface clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth; avoid harsh chemical cleaners that may strip the finish.
