The SANDOR® of Fire Resistance Doors come in different hourly rating from half hour to 2 hours. All products are proven and tested to meet strict government standards and requirements.

When you have to choose Fire Resistance Doors there are only two important criteria to consider :

1. In an emergency they MUST PERFORM, that is they must open easily to allow espace and when closed, resist fire for the actual rated period.

A Fire Resistant Door may pass the fire rating test for certification. However, more important to you is that you must have the assurance that the actual production doors you order are manufactured to the same critical standards so that every one of them will perform as designed and as certified. The critical points in this assurance here are...

	All materials must be up to the standard specified on the original certified door. 2nd grade materials or materials of lower density will reduce the integrity of the door in an emergency.
	Similarly, manufacturing techniques must be consistent with the original specification. Cost cuttings practices such as non-approved joins in core material or partial quality assurance testing can reduce actual performance.
	The best Fire Door in the world won't necessarily perform in an emergency if it hasn't been installed correctly. Poor fitting or wide gaps may lead to failure in an emergency. Your supplier must provide professional Fire Door installers who adhere to standards and who are well experienced in installing Fire Resistant Doors in your type of Projects. When a supplier doesn't strictly follow specified practices it leads to cheap doors but the compromise on quality may mean the doors do not perform to their certified fire rating.

2. They must be delivered on time, reduce hassles and deliver true value.

	On Time Delivery: Always chooses a supplier who can work with you to provide the exact requirements for every Fire Door in your Project and who can deliver on time. Unreliable delivery from suppliers not up to the task can play havoc with your Project Schedule.
	Less Hassle: Today, a supplier who can provide all of your Fire Resistant Doors complete with frame and hardware will reduce the hassle of dealing with multiple vendors. Remember that your time is much too valuable to be worrying about the coordination of multiple suppliers.
	Value: Project costs are always under pressure to be reduced. But as we've seen, you can't afford to compromise on safety. Value always beats price. Demand all of the above from your supplier...at a fair price.
