Fire retardant marine doors
Frequently asked questions
What are the different types of marine doors available, and which one is suitable for my specific application?
- Single Leaf Doors: These are standard doors with one door panel. They are used in many areas of a vessel and come in fire-resistant, watertight, and soundproof variants.
- Double Leaf Doors: These have two door panels that meet in the middle when closed. They are ideal for larger openings and can provide fire and watertight protection.
- Fire-Resistant Doors: Designed to withstand fire for a specified duration (e.g., A60 for 60 minutes, B15 for 30 minutes), these doors are critical for containing fires within compartments.
- Weathertight Doors: Weathertight fire doors are specialized marine doors designed to withstand harsh weather conditions while also providing fire protection. These doors are often used in external locations on vessels, such as access points to open decks or enclosed cargo areas. They are constructed with materials that are both fire-resistant and resistant to corrosion from saltwater and environmental factors.
- Soundproof or Acoustic Doors: These doors are specially designed to minimize noise transmission between compartments and are common in areas where noise control is crucial.
Can you provide custom sizes or designs to fit the unique requirements of my vessel or structure?
Staus offers many customization options. We can tailor door sizes, configurations, and features to meet your vessel’s specific layout and requirements. Discuss your needs with us to ensure a precise fit and functionality.
What are the fire resistance ratings (e.g., A0, A60, B15) of the doors, and how do these ratings impact their performance?
Fire resistance ratings indicate a door’s ability to withstand fire. Common ratings include A0 (no fire protection), A60 (60 minutes), B15 (30 minutes), and others. The higher the rating, the longer the door can withstand fire exposure. A60 doors are often used for critical areas like engine rooms, while B15 doors are employed in less critical spaces. Ratings significantly impact fire containment, safety, and regulatory compliance.
