What Is a Class E Fire Door?

A Class E fire door provides a minimum of 30 minutes of fire resistance, helping to slow the spread of fire and smoke between rooms or compartments. This classification is widely specified in South African residential building codes and SANS standards for internal doorways where fire separation is required.

Ideal Applications

• Residential homes requiring fire-rated internal doors
• Sectional title and apartment complexes
• Light commercial interiors where 30-minute fire separation is specified
• Renovation and new build projects requiring code-compliant fire doors

Installation Notes

This door is supplied as a door blank and must be hung in a suitable fire-rated door frame. Ensure all hardware (hinges, locks, and closers) is rated for use with fire doors. Intumescent seals and smoke seals may be required depending on your specific fire door specification and local building regulations.
