Fire rated door classification and model selection guide
Whether pedestrian, industrial, or garage doors, there are several indicators to ensure fire-rated doors meet regulatory requirements.
Fire door regulations
Since November 1, 2016, European standards EN 16034, EN 14351-1, and EN 13241 have defined mandatory requirements for fire and/or smoke control doors.
From September 1, 2019, CE marking is mandatory. Before this, national and EU systems coexisted.
Fire-rated doors must comply with:
- Fire resistance test per UNE-EN 1634-1 and EI2 (t) classification per UNE-EN 13501-2, where (t) = 30, 60, 90, or 120 minutes.
- Self-closing durability test per UNE-EN 1191 C5 durability classification (200,000 cycles) under EN 14600.
Additional, they must meet the minimum requirements established by the Technical Building Code.
- Hinges (without spring)
- Fire-rated glazing only (no smoke-retardant glass)
- CE-marked door closers (except inspection hatches)
- CE-marked closing selectors (for double-leaf doors)
- CE-marked locks
- CE-marked panic bars
- CE-marked electromagnets
Automatic closing durability
The automatic closing classification (C) refers to a door’s ability to fully close into its frame and engage the locking mechanism.
Results are classified according to EN 13501-2 and are expressed with a “C” followed by a digit from 0 to 5, based on the number of cycles completed during the test.
| Category | Cycles |
| C5 | ≥ 200,000 |
| C4 | ≥ 100,000 |
| C3 | ≥ 50,000 |
| C2 | ≥ 10,000 |
| C1 | ≥ 500 |
| C0 | 1–499 |

Fire-resistant doors (en 1634-1)
The purpose of fire resistance testing is to evaluate the performance of a door sample when subjected to defined conditions of heat and pressure.
The “I” (insulation) factor can be measured and classified in two ways, indicated by subscripts 1 and 2, depending on national European regulations. Spanish regulations require classification according to EI2.
Based on this, fire-rated doors can be classified according to the duration of fire resistance (measured in minutes) as: EI2 60, EI2 90, EI2 120, etc.
The standardized time intervals under the updated UNE standard are: 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180, and 240 minutes.

Fire rated door models
Once the main classification indicators have been defined, let’s take a look at the models offered by Kavidoors as certified manufacturers of fire-rated doors, along with their corresponding classifications:
Standard hinged fire doors
This door is designed for use in residential and public buildings, where reliability and cost-effectiveness are key priorities.
| Available classifications | Durability | Versions |
| EI2 45/60/90/120 | C5 | Single and double leaf |
This range of fire doors has been tested with a wide variety of hardware, including handles, door closers, closing selectors, panic bars, fire-resistant glazing, and more. A broad selection of finishes is also available. Within this model, we offer options such as double-leaf RF fire doors, large-size tunnel fire doors, and UL-certified fire doors compliant with ANSI-UL 10B standards.
Sliding fire doors
These fire-resistant doors move horizontally along a track system, allowing the construction of large openings. They are commonly used in areas that must remain open, thanks to an electromagnetic retention system. When a fire detection signal cuts off the power supply, a counterweight system ensures the automatic closing of the door.
They are an ideal solution for compartmentalization in industrial environments and public buildings, offering both safety and functionality.
Vertical sliding fire doors
Vertical fire doors are an excellent solution for compartmentalizing industrial areas, especially where available headroom makes this configuration the most efficient.
These doors are designed to remain open, held in place by an electromagnet. In the event of a fire signal, the building’s alarm system automatically releases the mechanism, and a counterweight system ensures controlled vertical closing.
| Available classifications | Versions |
| EI2 120 | Single leaf with vertical opening |

Other fire door options: glazed and specialized models
Fire protection requirements reach a higher standard when structural elements incorporate sophisticated design.
The sectional design of our RF fire-rated doors enables vertical opening, with panels sliding flat under the ceiling and stacking efficiently. This innovative system maximizes usable overhead space, making it ideal for industrial buildings with transparent domes or glazed façades. It integrates seamlessly into critical environments, allowing uninterrupted access and ensuring continuous operation that enhances both safety and productivity.
Thermal and acoustic insulation is achieved through double-skin panels made of RAL 9010 lacquered galvanized steel, insulated with PUR polyurethane foam. Available in 40 mm and 80 mm thicknesses, and standard heights of 500 mm and 610 mm, these panels maintain consistent temperatures and airtightness, improving energy efficiency and enabling a controlled industrial environment.
The self-repairing design of our fire-resistant doors allows panels made from high-strength materials to absorb impacts without permanent damage. This feature significantly reduces maintenance costs and minimizes downtime, ensuring continuous operation. Maintenance is simplified thanks to direct access points for fast and effective interventions, enhancing safety and efficiency in demanding industrial environments with proven results.
Installation is quick and efficient thanks to a modular system that does not require ceiling anchoring. This versatile solution adapts to various opening types and structures, offering customization in color and dimensions. As certified manufacturers of fire-rated doors, we guarantee compliance with the strictest safety standards, ensuring optimal protection in any industrial setting.
