Mike North Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 I can’t imagine the difference between the tests in order to approve one for domestic and not for commercial. I would be very interested as I may have to rip out 40,000 doors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as the frame has the correct fire performance rating for the location, is compatible with the other components of the door set & is correctly installed then it's fine - Building Regulation & Fire Safety Guidance specifies primarily by performance, not by type of material.
