House of Doors - Roanoke, VA www.houseofdoors-salem,com As you look around your facility at your fire rated doors you may not be aware of some of the more common violations that void your fire ratings: 1. Painted or missing fire labels 2. Poor clearance around perimeter of your door in the closed position 3. Use of kick-down door holders / doors blocked in a hold open position 4. Broken veneer on a wood door / puncture of metal skin on a metal door 5. Broken or defective hardware items 6. Missing or incorrect fasteners 7. Bottom flush bolts that do not project 1/2" into the strike 8. Auxiliary hardware items that interfere with the intended function of the door (barrel bolts, deadbolts, etc) 9.
