Subject says it all really.

I want to use ledged and braced doors on renovation project but a couple
of doors need to be fire doors (not yet confirmed with BCO).

Is there such a beast as a ledged and braced fire door?

Cheers

Martin

Martin,

No - their construction is such that they are not 'strong enough' to hold a
fire back for at least half an hour.

A fire door with a ledged and braced appearance could be made up by a
joiner to look similar to your other doors, but would be quite a bit
thicker than normal (& heavier) and would require intumescent seals.

much as I hate to do it Jeld-Wen make a L&B fire door look alike check
their web site just negotiate hard with which ever agent u use cos jeld
wen prices are steep.
