The range of Fear Free doors also includes a 30 minute fire door. These doors are branded as Fire Free and incorporate intumescent materials which have been applied to key areas of the door and frame to stem the flow of flames and hot gasses in case of fire.

Fire Free branded doors leafs feature a patented foam core, surrounded by a laminated veneer substrate. The surface of the door is made from glass reinforced polyester resin. This is formed and bonded to the core in a unique one-step press action while the resins are still in liquid form, ensuring a monolithic structure and providing a half-hour fire rating on both solid and glazed doors.

Fire Free Fire Doors were recently tested to BS 476: Part 22.
Both doors were glazed and achieved the following results:

	Sample 1 (Left) : 36 minutes
	Sample 2 (Right) : 48 minutes

Insulation
During the test the furnace temperature at 30 minutes was approaching 900°C. On the non-furnace side the average temperature of the unexposed surface was less than 70°C. The criteria for a pass was that it should not exceed 180°C.

Integrity
During the test the movement or distortion of the door leaf was measured. With a temperature of almost 900°C recorded on the furnace side the door was recorded as distorting by only 5mm.
