Steel fire protection doors, also known as fire-rated steel doors, are a critical component of a building’s fire safety system. These doors are designed to prevent the spread of fire and smoke within a building, protecting people and property. They can control the spread of fire for up to three hours, providing crucial time for occupants to evacuate and for fire services to respond.
Benefits
Security: Steel doors are tough and resilient against attempts at forced entry. Their strength makes them a formidable deterrent to burglars. When equipped with proper locking mechanisms and reinforced with security ratings such as the Loss Prevention Standard (LPS) 1175, they can provide enhanced security for a building.
Durability and longevity: Steel doors are resistant to warping, cracking, and rot, which makes them long-lasting. They also require less maintenance compared to wooden doors.
Insulation: Steel doors can also provide good insulation, helping to keep a building warm in winter and cool in summer, thereby improving energy efficiency.
Typical Construction:
The standard construction of a steel security door includes features like non-handed design with reversible hinge plates, and interlocking seam for enhanced structural rigidity and durability. The door comes with a factory-applied rust inhibiting primer. They are generally available in standard door widths, though custom sizes can also be available.
External steel security doors are a strong, reliable, and highly functional addition to any building that values security, durability, and insulation.

Mark and Lee were fantastic in every aspect. They were punctual, polite and professional. They respected the fact we are a Pharma company and followed our processes to the letter. A real credit to your company and will definitely use and recommend in the future.
We had all of our workshop doors replaced last year and I was very happy with how the process went. From start to finish it was a very smooth exercise and the team that fitted the doors were very professional, but also, extremely friendly. I really want to highlight that our workshop that week was extremely busy and we needed to remain operational. The teamwork between Arrow and my engineers was excellent and caused minimal disruption to a very busy part of our business.
Following the installation of a DualAir® door, NE Plastics observed there had been a reduction in both road and wind noise, and that the factory was also warmer. This resulted in better working conditions and a reduction in their energy bills.
Arrow met our delivery and customer service expectations from day one. We chose them for three reasons: outstanding Health & Safety adherence, skilled engineers, and knowledge transfer to our team.
Sarah has been an absolute pleasure to work with. She has picked everything up that we need immediately and has fielded a number of out of hours calls for me and resolved them. I really can’t speak highly enough of her.
I have worked with Arrow for a few years and have always had quick, reliable service. I've never had any issues and when I encountered a problem or wanted to know some information, Arrow always responded quickly and never hesitated to help.
