Designed for architects, contractors and specifiers, the guide provides clear, practical direction on selecting doorsets in line with industry standards and regulations. In the wake of regulatory reform, including the Fire Safety Act 2021 and the Building Safety Act 2022, the accurate specification of fire doors, particularly flat entrance doors, has become increasingly critical.
As well as detailing fire resistance requirements, the guide provides a framework for meeting other key performance standards, including smoke and acoustic performance, security features and aesthetics, helping specifiers balance compliance with project design demands.
Tony Pell, Product Manager at JELD-WEN, explained: “This technical guide has been developed to give specifiers greater clarity and confidence when selecting fire doorsets across a wide range of sectors. It provides comprehensive details for the selection, installation and performance requirements, and serves as a reliable resource for achieving high-quality solutions.”
The launch of the guide also supports the industry’s focus on maintaining the golden thread of information throughout a building’s lifecycle by providing clear, accessible performance data to support informed specification decisions.
Tony added, “Responsibility for fire door performance spans the entire supply and installation chain. From design and specification through to installation and maintenance, competence and accurate information are essential at every stage. Providing clear technical guidance is one way we can help strengthen accountability across the supply chain.”
The new technical specification guide forms part of JELD-WEN’s wider commitment to improving clarity and accountability across the specification process. This includes the recent refresh of its SecureFIT and ReadyFIT ranges, designed to simplify product selection and help specifiers make confident, compliant decisions amidst complex regulatory requirements.
