Achieve Code Compliance and Optimize Access with Fire-rated Floor Hatches
Building codes prioritize fire safety, but floor access can weaken fire resistance, making it challenging to balance functionality and safety, as floor sealing eliminates essential safety systems.
Fire-rated floor hatches provide controlled access points, fire resistance, safety during fires, compliance with building codes, and preserve access for maintenance and inspections.
Why Our Fire-Rated Floor Hatches Stand Above the Rest
A fire-rated floor hatch is a discreet, fire-resistant door constructed from heavy-duty steel. Some models feature ceramic blanket insulation to withstand intense heat and flames. Automatic shut-down mechanisms help contain fires and prevent further damage, enhancing safety in high-heat areas.
