Hi,
We will be starting work on a loft extension in the NY.
A condition is to fit FD30 rate doors for all habitables coming off the stairwell. This is all sensible and fine.
The trouble is I have a non-standard width double door coming off the dining room into the hall.
I have found some Deanta doors that can be (safely) trimmed to fit and the initial plan was to have a pair of doors fitted with intumescent strips on hanging, top and meeting edges and the appropriate hinges.
When I contacted BC to inform of this they asked for fire certs, trouble is the manufacturer only have certs for single-leaf or 1.5-leaf. This seems pretty standard with none of the main manufacturers providing double door certification.
I can't be the only person to have come up against this so how does everyone else get signed off?
Thanks in advance,
Will
