Professional Fire Door Installation

Unlike standard overhead doors, fire-rated doors are engineered to withstand extreme heat, pressure, and toxic gases, buying critical evacuation time when it matters most. These assemblies limit the spread of smoke, fire, and dangerous fumes, reducing injuries and structural damage alike.

We install fire doors for a wide range of commercial property types, including manufacturing and industrial plants, offices, retail establishments, healthcare facilities, hospitality venues, recreation centers, aviation facilities, and more. Each installation follows NFPA 80 as referenced by the International Building Code, so the assembly performs to its rated specification from day one.

Two of the most common fire door types we install include:

Hollow Metal Fire Doors

Available in 16, 18, or 20 gauges, hollow metal fire doors feature UL-labeled construction and a full-flush, seamless design. They include fire-rated hardware options and Regulation 4 certification, and can be fabricated from cold-rolled, galvanized, or galvanneal steel for interior or exterior openings. They’re particularly well-suited for emergency egress situations where occupants need reliable, unobstructed exit routes.

Rolling Steel Fire Doors

Rolling steel fire doors work well across a wide range of commercial applications, from warehouse openings to corridor separations in high-occupancy facilities. They use tension springs for smooth operation and incorporate fire-rated smoke seals that help contain smoke and flames at the opening. In Ohio, rolling steel fire doors and shutters require annual drop tests and certification to remain compliant.

Not sure which door type fits your property and occupancy classification? We can conduct a site assessment before you commit to a product, so you’re not guessing at what the Authority Having Jurisdiction can require.

Fire Door Inspection & NFPA 80 Compliance Documentation

NFPA 80 requires fire door assemblies to be inspected and tested no less than annually, with a written record retained for review by the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). The Ohio Building Code mirrors this requirement: annual inspection, a signed written record, and corrective action documented for any deficiency found. Healthcare, education, government, and high-occupancy commercial facilities often face heightened scrutiny and additional regulatory oversight beyond the standard annual cycle.

We conduct fire door inspections for commercial businesses throughout Columbus and Franklin County. Our process covers every criterion NFPA 80 requires inspectors to verify:

Visual inspection for damage to the door, frame, and surrounding assembly
Testing door operation, self-closing devices, and positive latch function
Checking seals and gasketing for proper fit and heat-expansion performance
Confirming labels are legible and intact, clearances are within tolerance, and no unauthorized field modifications have been made
Producing a detailed written report that includes the inspection date, inspector name, opening identifier, deficiencies identified, and corrective actions taken

When our inspection turns up a non-compliant door, we can complete the necessary repairs on the same call, giving you a single point of contact from inspection through corrective action. Your documentation can reflect a closed loop before the AHJ arrives.
