Fire doors often require additional care due to their construction and safety standards. Unlike standard doors, fire doors are manufactured with materials and a core designed to resist heat and flames, ensuring fire integrity. Trimming them improperly could compromise their effectiveness and may invalidate certifications.
Fire doors attract a higher cost to trim which reflects the specialised tools or techniques needed, as well as the potential need to comply with specific regulations. It’s also crucial to maintain the fire door's intumescent seals and other safety features during the process.
