Advantages Of Timber Custom Fire Doors

There are many considerations when choosing fire doors for your property, be it business premises or your home. In many instances the installation of fire doors may be a mandatory, legal requirement – but, even if that is not the case, it is a worthwhile consideration for ANY building given the primary function of fire doors is to protect people from harm and potentially save lives, as well as protecting the building itself in the event of a fire outbreak! There are other advantages to installing fire doors in your property, some of which are mentioned below:

Timber Custom Fire Doors 

There are different options for sourcing and buying your fire doors – for a quick and convenient solution, there are “off-the-shelf” finished doors available from many retailers and manufacturers. If, however, you want the perfect style, fit, and functionality from your fire doors then you should consider ordering bespoke, custom-made fire doors from an established timber door manufacturer. You can buy the fire doors as a whole door set, designed and manufactured in any style you want, so you can install timber custom fire doors that are the perfect fit and style for your home or building.

Security

Another additional advantage of installing custom timber fire doors is that the fire safety features for fire doors also automatically provide greater security than a standard internal door – they are much more difficult for potential intruders to breach given the heavier materials and locking mechanisms that are typical on fire doors.

Durability

Those same safety characteristics mean that your fire doors will also be more durable and longer-lasting than a standard internal door – the thicker, heavier materials used in construction can better withstand the everyday wear and tear that doors endure and will therefore offer a longer life span than typical internal doors.

Soundproofing

Timber custom fire doors will also provide a greater level of soundproofing – a valuable asset in any environment both at work and in the home! The thicker fire doors act as effective sound barriers against both external and internal sources of noise disturbance – from a busy workshop or factory floor through to office areas, where a greater level of quiet is needed, or in the home, where the kids may be playing their music and computer games, or from busy utility rooms with washing machines and such, creating potential intrusion or disturbance.

Quality

All your timber doors will be carefully manufactured to your precise, individual specifications. Only the very highest quality and best components will be used, and all the work will be completed to every industry, trade, and health and safety standards and building regulations that are often mandatory in certain building environments. The finish for custom timber doors can incorporate any type of glazing you require – single or double-glazed depending upon where the timber doors are to be installed and the use of the rooms they service. There are a variety of finishes available including a selection of veneers and laminates, along with a comprehensive range of quality ironmongery to meet your display and security requirements.

Versatility

Consulting with a bespoke timber door manufacturer will provide you with both the knowledge and expertise to choose the ideal custom timber fire doors to suit your purpose and environment. Timber custom fire doors are not simply exit and entry points – they can deliver, not only the strong all-round performance required from your doors, but also a stunning finish and aesthetics that will last a very long time!
