The most frequently asked question
Our fire doors and windows are tested and certified in accordance with relevant national and international standards to ensure a high level of fire resistance.
How fire resistant are your doors and windows?
Yes, our fire doors and windows are designed with aesthetics in mind, so they fit into any interior. In the case of historic replicas, they are exact replicas of the original doors and windows.
Are your fire doors and windows attractive by design?
We use high quality wood, non-flammable materials and high heat resistant glass to ensure a high level of fire resistance.
What materials do you use for fire doors and windows?
Of course, wooden windows and doors will burn, but only after a given time. This time is determined by a numerical value in their fire resistance. So, for example, EW-30 = 30 minutes and then burns. This allows the timely evacuation of people and prevents fire from entering, for example, escape routes.
How is it possible that wooden doors/windows don't burn?
Fire doors are designed to provide a high level of fire resistance and to prevent the spread of smoke and fire. They have special seals and a special design that prevents smoke and heat from penetrating into other areas for a period of time.
What are the differences between fire doors and conventional doors?
Laws and standards regarding fire safety vary depending on the country and area, but in general, every building should have a fire protection system, such as fire alarms, fire extinguishers, fire doors and windows. Worldwide, fire safety is determined by firefighters in the PBG.
What are the legal requirements for fire safety in buildings?
DP1 - Products that do not release heat in the event of a fire and therefore do not increase the intensity of the fire.
DP2 - products that do not release heat in the event of a fire and therefore do not increase the intensity of the fire (used only for manhole doors).
DP3 - products that release heat in the event of a fire, so that they increase the intensity of combustion.
EW - fire limiting products for a certain period of time (EW15 = 15 minutes) (E - integrity criterion for fire resistance, W - surface radiation criterion),
EI - Fire-resistant and smoke-tight products (E - integrity criterion for fire resistance, I - insulating ability)
SC - Smoke-tight products to prevent the passage of smoke (S - ability to reduce/prevent the passage of smoke or fumes, C - automatic closing of the door into the frame)
