Letterbox on flat door


Guest Tony

Recommended Posts

Hi, our block of flats were built in the 1980’s and have letterbox’s in the door. We have no information on these doors so I just wanted to know would we need the doors replaced as I heard unless the manufacturer says you can, fire doors cannot be drilled through. As we have no evidence how can we be sure these doors will perform in a fire?

Some fire doors can have apertures for fire resistant and smoke restricting letter plates.  My advice would be to engage a competent & experienced fire door inspector to verify whether or not the doors are suitable in terms of their fire and smoke performance, as flat entrance doors.
