Quote that number to BM TRADA and they should be able to provide you with the contact details for the door manufacturer. You can then contact their technical dept for the information you need. But, generally speaking yes. A timber-based fire door with intumescent seals will generally require a 12mm thick rebate stop at the head and jambs of the door frame. Report
