Fire-rated doors protect and add visual appeal.
Fire-rated doors increase the safety and security of your Arlington, Texas home or business. Depending on the material and construction, they are designed to withstand fires from 20 minutes to over 3 hours. These doors contain fires, preventing or slowing the spread to other building areas. More importantly, occupants of the building have more time to evacuate safely.
Strict regulations govern selecting and installing fire-rated doors to ensure they perform like they should during emergencies. At Artex Overhead Door Company, we understand these requirements and can provide expert guidance. We have a selection of fire-rated doors suitable for different applications and aesthetics, from industrial environments to office buildings and homes.
A fire-rated door protects egress routes to allow safe evacuation and limits property damage by confining the fire to specific building sections for a certain time. We have fire-rated doors made from steel, wood, glass, and composite materials that resist fire. Steel is most used for its high durability and fire resistance. Fire-rated doors are subjected to rigorous testing by recognized laboratories to determine their fire resistance rating. The rating is usually indicated on a label on the door.
Incorporating fire-rated doors into your property’s design doesn’t mean compromising style. Many options blend seamlessly with the building’s architecture, ensuring safety measures do not detract from visual appeal. As a reliable provider and installer with 35 years of experience, we can ensure your fire-rated doors meet the necessary safety standards and contribute to your space’s overall aesthetics and functionality.
