A gate is called a fire-rated door if it is sufficiently resistant to smoke and fire to prevent them from spreading throughout a building. They are made using glass, metal, or wood. They are usually red in color, with an intumescent seal around the edges. For fire-rated doors, a certification label is required as proof of the test used to determine the door's fire resistance level. These doors reduce the overall amount of property damage, prevent the fire from spreading, and facilitate a safe, timely, and encounter-free evacuation of people. For this reason, fire-rated doors are widely used in residential, business, and industrial settings.
