Fire-rated doors must work properly to protect people and property during an emergency. At Rainbow Locksmith NY, we repair and restore common issues that often cause fire doors to fail inspection.

Fire-Rated Door Emergency Exit Doors

1. Damaged or Missing Fire Labels

Every fire-rated door needs a visible label to confirm its certification. If labels are missing, painted over, or damaged, we replace them and provide proper documentation.

2. Worn or Missing Seals

Seals play a vital role in slowing the spread of fire and smoke. We replace cracked, loose, or missing seals so the door performs at its intended rating.

3. Improper Door Gaps

Incorrect gaps around a door frame allow flames and smoke to pass through. Our technicians adjust frames, hinges, and thresholds to bring gaps back within code requirements.

4. Faulty Door Closers

Fire doors must shut automatically to do their job. If closers are broken or misaligned, we repair or replace them so the door closes fully and securely.

5. Non-Rated Hardware

Using the wrong locks, hinges, or glass panels can compromise a door’s fire rating. We install tested hardware designed to meet official fire safety standards.

6. Warped or Damaged Door Leaves

Over time, fire doors can warp, dent, or weaken. When repairs are not enough, we provide replacement doors that meet current safety codes.

Frequently Asked Questions About Fire-Rated Doors

What is the purpose of a fire-rated door?

A fire-rated door is designed to slow the spread of fire and smoke, giving people more time to evacuate and reducing property damage. They are tested and certified to resist fire for a specific time period, such as 20, 60, or 90 minutes.

Most New York City building codes require fire-rated doors in multi-family apartments, commercial properties, stairwells, and certain corridors. Rainbow Locksmith NY can assess your property and confirm that your doors meet NFPA 80 and NYC compliance standards.

Not all doors can be converted. To be compliant, a door must be manufactured and tested as a fire-rated assembly (including frame, hardware, and seals). However, Rainbow Locksmith NY can help retrofit some existing doors with fire-rated hardware and seals if allowed by code.

It’s recommended to have annual or semi-annual inspections, depending on the building type and usage. Our team provides inspections, documentation, and ongoing maintenance to keep your doors compliant.

If a fire door does not fully close, its rating is invalid. This is one of the most common reasons properties fail inspections. Our technicians repair closers, hinges, and seals to make sure your door functions correctly in an emergency.

No. While many are steel fire doors, there are also wood veneer, painted, and decorative fire-rated door options that provide protection without compromising style. Rainbow Locksmith NY offers doors that match your design while meeting fire standards.
