Fire-rated doors play one of the most essential roles in building safety. Whether installed in HDB units, condominiums, commercial shops, industrial buildings, or office spaces, these doors are designed to slow down the spread of fire and smoke during an emergency. They are not ordinary doors; they are highly engineered components that protect lives and property. Unfortunately, like any mechanical structure, fire-rated doors can suffer from wear, misalignment, hardware failure, or damage over time. When this happens, immediate repair becomes essential—not only for safety but also for maintaining compliance with Singapore’s fire safety standards.

Our team understands the urgency of handling defective fire-rated doors, and we approach every repair with precision, technical expertise, and strict adherence to safety guidelines. With years of experience in door engineering and building maintenance, we deliver solutions that restore proper functionality and prolong the lifespan of fire-rated doors.

Why Fire-Rated Door Repair Is Important

A damaged fire-rated door is more than just an inconvenience. It can put an entire building at risk during an emergency. Fire-rated doors are specially designed to withstand high temperatures for a specified duration, typically 30, 60, or 120 minutes, depending on the building’s safety requirements. Any defect—such as loose hinges, improper sealing, gaps, damaged closing mechanisms, or warped panels—can compromise the door’s ability to perform its function.

In Singapore, building owners, tenants, and businesses are required to maintain their fire-rated doors in good working condition to comply with fire safety regulations. A faulty fire-rated door may result in penalties after inspections, but more importantly, it can endanger everyone inside the property. This is why professional fire-rated door repair is crucial.

Common Issues That Require Fire-Rated Door Repair

Tasfia Engineering SG handles a wide range of problems related to fire-rated doors. Some of the most common issues include:

1. Misalignment or sagging doors
   Over time, fire-rated doors may become misaligned due to daily use, heavy weight, or structural movement. This can cause the door to drag on the floor or fail to close properly. Misalignment reduces sealing effectiveness and poses a safety hazard.

2. Damaged or worn-out hinges
   Fire-rated doors require certified, heavy-duty hinges. When they become loose or broken, the door cannot close correctly, which affects its fire resistance rating.

3. Faulty door closers
   A fire-rated door must close automatically without manual assistance. If the door closer is leaking, weak, or unresponsive, immediate replacement or repair is necessary.

4. Compromised intumescent seals
   These seals expand under heat to block smoke. Damaged, missing, or hardened seals must be replaced to restore the door’s protective function.

5. Warping or swelling of the door leaf
   Moisture, impact, or age can cause the fire-rated door to warp, making it difficult to close securely.

6. Damaged fire-rated frames
   Cracked or misaligned frames prevent proper sealing and disrupt door performance during an emergency.

7. Unauthorized drilling or modifications
   Any modifications made using non-approved hardware can void its rating and must be corrected by a fire-rated repair specialist.

Our team provides solutions for all these issues using proper tools, certified materials, and compliant repair methods.
