At Esk, we deliver complete traceability from specification to installation ensuring your building is not just safe, but provably compliant.
Most building managers think fire door compliance means choosing between safety and aesthetics. They assume fire doors have to look institutional, heavy, and industrial—clashing with the rest of the building’s design.
So they delay the upgrade. They try to find loopholes. They install compliant doors and then feel like they’ve compromised the interior.
A fire door is a complete system door leaf, frame, seals, hardware, and closing device must all work together.
Here’s what matters: the correct fire rating (FD30, FD60, etc.) specified by your fire risk assessment; third-party certificationproving the entire doorset has been tested together; quality components with intumescent seals, fire-rated hardware, and proper closing mechanisms; precision installation following manufacturer specifications exactly gaps, seal compression, and frame fixings must be right or the whole system fails; and documented maintenance to keep it compliant over time.
Most fire door failures happen because a certified door was installed poorly or left unmaintained. At Esk, we specify, manufacture, install, and maintain your fire doors—with full traceability at every step.
