What is a fire door?
Fire doors are located near stairs and elevators of buildings such as condominiums, schools, and commercial facilities, and close in the event of a fire prevent fire and smoke from spreading to buildings and secure evacuation routes. It is an important equipment set up by law that protects your life.
There are two types of fire doors: a type that is usually embedded in walls and detects smoke in the event of a fire and automatically closes, and a type that is installed next to shutters.
