fireproof Steel doors – Effective safety protection solution

On average each year, thousands of fires occur nationwide, causing tragic loss of life and property. Without appropriate prevention measures, the fire will spread quickly, hindering the evacuation process and threatening human lives.

Therefore, fire prevention and fighting regulations are being paid attention to and require strict compliance with the aim of meeting fire safety needs and reducing fire risks for Vietnamese people. Currently, fire steel doors (also known as fireproof steel doors) are one of the top choices for fireproofing solutions for buildings, modern apartments, shopping centers, hospitals and other businesses. places with high risk of fire and explosion.

What is a fireproof steel doors?

Fireproof steel doors, or commonly known as fire-resistant steel doors, are special doors capable of preventing local fire spread, smoke and toxic gases from escaping outside for a certain period of time, depending on the substance. amount of constituent materials. When a fire occurs, steel fire doors will prolong the penetration time of the fire, ensuring human safety during the evacuation process.

Standards for evaluating the quality of steel fire doors

The quality standards of steel fire doors are an important factor to evaluate the ability to withstand high temperatures, the ability to prevent fire and insulate when a fire occurs. Currently on the market there are many different levels of heat resistance and fire resistance such as EI15, EI30, EI45, EI60, EI70, EI90, EI120, EI150 and EI180 (corresponding fire resistance limits are 15,30,45… minutes ). In Vietnam, fire door regulations and standards often require fire resistance limits of EI45 (45 minutes), EI60 (60 minutes) and EI90 (90 minutes) to ensure proper door installation and function has been approved.

The process of manufacturing fireproof steel doors until they are put into use must meet inspection standards according to current Vietnamese regulations and be granted an inspection certificate by the Fire and Rescue Police Department. . Standards for testing the fire resistance of doors include: National standard TCVN 9383:2012 on Fire resistance testing – Doors and fire barriers; National standard TCVN 9311-1:2012 (ISO 834-1:1999) on Fire resistance testing – Construction components.

The structure of the fireproof steel door uses KH Shield panels

Fireproof steel doors (Fireproof steel doors) apply KH Shield fireproof material, simple structure, easy to construct and install. The outer steel fire door solution is 2 layers of steel with a thickness of 0.8mm – 1.4mm depending on the fireproof standard chosen by the business, the middle core is KHS.HF.M insulation board – the key material. Determine the ability to prevent the spread of fire. Although KH Shield insulation panels are a new material on the market, they have been applied to many effective fire prevention and insulation solutions today. These layers are fixed by the door frame and completed with other accessories to ensure absolute safety and aesthetics for the steel fire door.

KH Shield – Optimal effective fire protection solution

Currently, there are many regulations on ensuring fire safety for construction projects. Therefore, steel fire doors are one of the indispensable products in the fire protection system, especially for projects with large usable spaces, high human density, and complex uses. Compounds must be subject to fire protection inspection before being put into use.

Regulations on fire prevention structures

According to section 5, Appendix VII of Decree No. 136/2020/ND-CP stipulating samples of fire prevention components (fire doors, fire partitions, fire valves, fire curtains) subject to fire prevention and inspection. fire fighting. Fire door inspection is the determination of the door’s fire resistance (integrity and insulation). Standards for testing the fire resistance of fire doors according to the procedure TCVN 9311-1:2012 (ISO 834-1) on fire resistance testing – Construction components and National Standard TCVN 9383:2012 about Fire resistance testing – Doors and fire barriers.

Despite its simple structure, the fireproof steel door using KH Shield insulation panels meets current strict fire protection tests. With KHS.HF.M insulation panels specializing in coordination with metal surfaces, KH Shield Joint Stock Company offers businesses and manufacturers diverse options for solutions to ensure fire safety. KH Shield is currently collaborating with units to create steel fire door solutions according to fire resistance limits: 60 minutes, 90 minutes and 120 minutes tested at the IBST Institute of Construction Science and Technology.
