What you get and pre-install checks
The door arrives pre-finished with a white base coat applied to the smooth moulded faces, ready for painting. Before installation, inspect the door for any transit damage and check that your frame is square, level, and the correct size. Ensure the frame is suitable for a 44mm thick door and that hinges and hardware are compatible with the door thickness. The white base coat provides good coverage for on-site painting but may require light sanding and a primer or undercoat depending on your chosen finish colour.

Fire rating and compliance
This door carries an FD30 fireshield rating, meaning it provides 30 minutes of fire resistance when properly installed in a suitable frame. The FD30 rating is essential for compliance in many residential and commercial buildings. To maintain the fire rating, the door must be installed correctly in an appropriate fire-rated frame with fire-rated hinges and hardware. Do not modify the door or frame in ways that could compromise the fire rating, and ensure all gaps are properly sealed during installation.
