Guest SarveenGA Posted September 22, 2011 Report Posted September 22, 2011 I am enquiring if you can help me find the answer to the following question. There are fire doors in the house I am currently living in (from looking around on your website, I have no idea what kind of fire doors) and I am interested in fixing coat hooks to the back of the doors. I have checked and the screws do not protrude though the fire door. Can you please advise me where I can find information on this, ie. I would like to know if this is possible or will fixing the coat hooks nullify the fire door status. Thank you Quote
Tom Sutton Posted September 23, 2011 Report Posted September 23, 2011 If it is a fire door then it most likely part of your escape route therefore it is not a good idea to increase the fire loading in that location. As to whether a screw will affect the integrity of a fire door is open the debate and the only way to find out would be to test the door which will never happen. I would suggest you find a safer place to store your coats. Quote
