Smoke doors

Smoke doors

A smoke door is not a lesser fire door. It does a different job, and it is inspected too.

Tell us the building and roughly how many doors, and we will arrange the inspection.

Fire Doors Brisbane connects building occupiers, body corporates and strata managers with QBCC-licensed fire protection contractors. We do not carry out inspections or remedial work ourselves.

Fire Doors Brisbane — firedoorsbrisbane.com.au — arranges these inspections with a QBCC-licensed contractor across Brisbane, Ipswich, Logan, Redlands and the Gold Coast.

What a smoke door is for

Smoke kills before fire does, and it travels further. Smoke doors are there to hold it back and keep an exit path usable — corridors, lobbies, stairwells.

They are usually lighter than fire doors and often glazed, which is why people assume they are ordinary doors and treat them as such.

Why they fail more often

Because they look ordinary. They get wedged, they get closers wound off, they get signage screwed through them, and the seals get painted.

They are a prescribed installation like any other and they are inspected on the same annual cycle.

The rest of it

Annual inspection

Every fire and smoke door, once a year, to AS 1851-2012.

Occupier's Statement

Form 74, who signs it, and the records it rests on.

Tagging

Each door identified and recorded, so the history survives.

Maintenance

Servicing to AS 1851-2012, and the records to prove it.

Repairs

Gaps, closers, seals and hardware, back to the tested configuration.

Replacement

When a leaf is beyond repair, or was never compliant.

Installation

Rated sets installed and tagged in refurbishments and fitouts.
