FAQs

Do all industrial cold rooms need a fire door?

No, only those located in a different fire sector from the area they are accessed from, or where the building’s fire safety plan requires it. The Spanish CTE DB SI sets fire sectors and compartmentation requirements according to use, floor area and risk level. Consult a fire safety specialist or the specific regulations for your installation.
