Guest Wilding Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 Hi Team. Could you please help with a query re covering some commercial property 30 min fire door faces with a thin self adhesive sticky plastic. The company that make this are d-c-fix but unfortunately they do not specify if its suitable for fire doors except they say due to its 1mm thickness it will not affect the rating. I have spoken to the local Building Control but they only deal with alterations. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sutton Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 Fire door leaves are generally not required to provide a specific surface spread-of-flame barrier, and may therefore be decorated as desired. It is recommended in BS 8214 2008 that overpainting be limited to a maximum of five coats of conventional oil-bound paint or varnish. Based on this, 1mm of plastic covering is not going to serious effect the fire door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
