Quick Answer
Commercial fire doors are certified door systems designed to help contain fire and smoke for a defined period, supporting safe evacuation and helping buildings work towards compliance with the National Construction Code (NCC) and AS 1905.1. Larnec’s range includes configurations for general commercial use, entry points, industrial environments, security applications, healthcare facilities, and a range of other building types, in timber plywood and steel-clad options.
What is a Commercial Fire Door?
A commercial fire door is a complete system — door leaf, frame, seals and hardware — tested to resist the passage of fire and smoke, helping contain fire and protect escape routes.
Larnec commercial fire doors can be configured to suit a wide range of commercial projects and are commonly specified for applications such as:
- Standard commercial — offices, retail and public buildings
- Entry — key access points combining fire protection with everyday usability
- Industrial — factories, warehouses and processing facilities
- Security — fire-rated construction with hardware aimed at improving forced-entry resistance
- Healthcare — hospitals and clinics, balancing fire protection with hygiene and accessibility
Every commercial fire door is supplied as a tested door system. Depending on the application, the approved fire-rated hardware, finish and installation method may vary to suit the project requirements and wall type.
Where Are They Used?
- Warehouses and Factories
- Commercial Offices and Retail
- Hospitals and Aged Care
- Schools
- Main Building Entries
- Storage and Asset-Protection Areas
- Modular Buildings
- The list goes on due to the versatility of the door system.
Compliance in Australia
Commercial fire doors are generally expected to align with the NCC, AS 1905.1 (fire-resistant doorsets) and AS 1530.4 (fire resistance testing). Doors are assigned a Fire Resistance Level (FRL) as part of certification. Because FRL requirements, clearances and inspection intervals vary by building class and application, confirm the specifics for your project with your certifier and the current NCC

Frequently asked questions
Larnec commercial fire doors are available with Fire Resistance Levels (FRLs) of up to 120 minutes (2 hours), depending on the tested door system and configuration.
Yes — Larnec’s custom fire doors are designed to be configured to suit a range of architectural styles, engineered and manufactured with a focus on functionality, durability and aesthetic appeal.
Generally the NCC, AS 1905.1 and AS 1530.4, plus certification labelling from a registered testing authority. Confirm the project-specific detail that applies to your building with your certifier.
Regularly clean the door and frame, keep the sill area free of debris, and check hinges, closers, locks and seals so the door continues to open, close, latch and seal as intended. In healthcare settings this should form part of routine cleaning protocols. Your certifier can confirm a suitable inspection schedule, and Larnec can arrange fire door inspections on request.
Yes. Fire-rated security hardware can be incorporated into a certified fire door system where required. Adding non-assessed hardware after installation may affect certification, so any security upgrades should be specified as part of the original tested door system.
