Fire Door Gap

What a better way to kick off today then by discussing the 1/8” gap for fire doors and WHY it’s important. It might not seem like a big deal, but it all ties back to a fire door doing it’s job when it’s superheated by a fire. There are many other Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance (ITM) requirements for fire doors, check out #NFPA80 for these. Fire door testing is still very spilt - some are outsourcing it, while others perform it internally. I’m curious, which side of the fence do you fall on? #education through #empowerment American Society for Health Care Engineering (ASHE) NFPA ConnexFM | The Multi-Site Facilities Management Network Boma Global IFMA #firedoors #passivefireprotection #doors #fireprotection #facilitiesmanagement #hfm #healthcarefacilities #healthcare #facilitymanagement #fm #skilledtrades
