Watch: The consequences of badly specified and fitted fire doors – plus 5 tips for getting it right

The video below demonstrates the how badly an incorrectly specified and installed fire door performs during a fire – however smart it might appear the untrained eye.

Produced by the BWF Certifire Fire Door Scheme, it shows footage of a live fire door test, pitting a fully compliant fire door against a badly fitted equivalent.

The video, put together for Fire Door Safety Week, also details a simple five-step checklist to ensure your fire doors are specified and installed properly.
