Fire Doors – Supply, Installation & Maintenance
Fire doors are an essential part of a building’s passive fire protection system, helping to contain fire and smoke, protect escape routes, and provide occupants with valuable time to evacuate safely. Correct installation, routine inspections, and ongoing maintenance are critical to ensuring fire doors perform as intended and remain compliant with relevant Australian Standards. At FCF Fire & Electrical Gold Coast, we provide professional fire door inspections, maintenance, repairs, and compliance services to help keep your property protected and your fire safety obligations up to date.
Compliance You Can Trust
Fire doors must comply with AS 1905.1 – Fire-Resistant Doorsets, which establishes the requirements for fire door construction, installation, operation, and ongoing performance. To provide effective protection, fire doors must be correctly fitted and maintained, as issues such as damaged seals, worn hardware, excessive gaps, or unauthorised modifications can compromise their ability to contain fire and smoke.
At FCF Fire & Electrical Gold Coast, our experienced technicians carry out fire door inspections, repairs, and maintenance to help ensure your fire doors remain compliant, fully operational, and capable of performing as intended during an emergency.

FAQs
What does a fire door actually do in an emergency?
A fire door is designed to help contain fire and smoke within a specific area of a building, slowing its spread and protecting evacuation routes. This provides occupants with additional time to evacuate safely and assists emergency services in managing the situation more effectively.
How often should fire doors be checked for compliance?
Fire doors should be inspected regularly as part of a building’s fire safety maintenance program. Routine inspections help identify issues such as damaged seals, faulty hardware, excessive gaps, or operational defects that could affect compliance and performance during an emergency.
What makes a fire door different from a standard door?
Unlike a standard door, a fire door is specifically designed and tested to resist the spread of fire and smoke for a designated period. Fire doors include specialised components such as fire-rated cores, seals, frames, hinges, and door closers that work together to provide protection during a fire event.
What are the most common fire door failures?
Common fire door defects include damaged or missing seals, faulty door closers, damaged hinges, excessive gaps around the door, doors that do not fully close or latch, and unauthorised modifications. Regular inspections can help identify and rectify these issues before they affect compliance or safety.
Can anyone install a fire door?
No. Fire doors should be installed and maintained by appropriately qualified professionals who understand the requirements of AS 1905.1 and relevant fire safety regulations. Correct installation is critical to ensuring the door performs as intended and remains compliant throughout its service life.
