Built for the demanding conditions of hospitals, clinics, care homes, surgeries, and laboratories, our healthcare fire doors combine certified fire protection with hard-wearing, wipe-clean surfaces suited to busy clinical settings. As a UK manufacturer rather than a reseller, QDoors supplies fully certified fire-rated doors, frames and doorsets at factory-direct prices, in FD30 and FD60 ratings and a wide choice of laminate, veneer and glazed finishes.
Doors built for healthcare environments
Doors in medical and care settings face constant traffic, frequent cleaning and strict safety requirements. Our healthcare fire doors are designed to stand up to daily wear while helping to contain fire and smoke, protecting escape routes and giving staff, patients and visitors time to evacuate safely. Because we manufacture in-house, we control quality at every stage and offer the consistent stock, competitive pricing and short lead times that large healthcare projects depend on.
Hard-wearing, wipe-clean finishes
Durability and easy cleaning matter in any care environment. Our laminate healthcare doors offer smooth surfaces that are easy to wipe down and stand up well to repeated cleaning and heavy use, a practical choice for wards, corridors and treatment rooms. For reception areas, consulting rooms and other front-of-house spaces, our veneer doors provide a warmer, premium appearance.
Our healthcare door range
Laminate fire doors. Available in Formica, Polyrey and Egger finishes, from clinical whites and greys to realistic woodgrains, laminate is the workhorse choice for high-traffic healthcare areas.
Veneer fire doors. Real-wood Oak, Walnut, Ash, Beech and Sapele veneers for receptions and patient-facing spaces where appearance matters.
Glazed and vision panel doors. Vision panels and glazed fire doors improve sightlines and natural light in corridors and clinical areas while maintaining full fire integrity, a practical aid to safe movement and supervision. Available in a range of apertures, including 3G, 7G, 8G, 16G, 18G, and 20G styles, along with the classic Pattern 10.
Doors are available in FD30 and FD60 ratings, in 44mm and 54mm thicknesses, across a full range of standard sizes, with bespoke sizing on request.
FD30 vs FD60: Choosing the right fire rating
Healthcare doors are rated by how long they resist fire. An FD30 door provides 30 minutes of fire resistance and suits most internal healthcare applications, while an FD60 door provides 60 minutes and is specified for higher-risk areas and certain compartment walls. Your fire risk assessment should confirm the correct rating for your building. Our team can help you specify.
Where are fire doors required in healthcare buildings?
In hospitals, care homes, and clinics, fire doors are required wherever the building is divided into fire compartments or where escape routes must be protected. Typical locations include protected corridors and stairwells, doors onto escape routes, walls between compartments, and higher-risk areas such as plant rooms, storage, and kitchens. Care environments often have additional considerations around the safe evacuation of patients with limited mobility. Requirements are set out in Building Regulations Approved Document B and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and exact locations should be confirmed by a fire risk assessment.
Certified and fully compliant
Fire safety in healthcare leaves no room for compromise. Our healthcare doors are tested and certified. Please visit our Door Certification page or contact us directly for documentation that relevant to your project.
