B-15 double door with top panel - type N-MLDD by Norac AS. DNV TA certificate TAF00001NM.

Inspection

Inspector Detail

Common issues

  • Door seal/gasket compression set over time, reducing fire and smoke sealing performance
  • Hinge wear causing the door to sag and no longer close or latch correctly
  • Corrosion of the door leaf, frame, or hardware in the marine environment
  • Self-closing device losing adjustment or failing, leaving the door not self-closing
  • Damage to seals from repeated impact or unauthorised overpainting
  • Misalignment after deck/bulkhead movement, preventing full closure against the frame

Inspection checklist

  • Function-test the door opens and closes freely and latches correctly under its own closer
  • Check door leaf and frame for distortion, corrosion, or damage
  • Inspect seals/gaskets for compression set, damage, or missing sections
  • Verify the self-closing device operates correctly and the door does not require force to close
  • Check any hold-open/release mechanism operates correctly and releases on demand
  • Confirm the door and hardware carry the correct, legible fire rating marking
  • Check hinges and latching hardware for wear and corrosion
  • Verify the door is not obstructed, wedged, or tied open in a way that defeats the self-closing function

Service intervals

Function/self-closing testmonthly, per SOLAS fire door testing requirements
Full condition inspection (seals, hardware, marking)annually or at fire safety survey
Hinge lubricationper PMS, typically every 6-12 months

Critical spares

  • Door seal/gasket set
  • Self-closing device (door closer)
  • Hinges
  • Latch/lock hardware
  • Edge trims and fixings

Safety

  • A fire door that does not self-close or fails to seal defeats its fire/smoke boundary purpose - treat any defect as a safety-critical finding
  • Never permanently wedge or tie open a self-closing fire door outside an approved hold-open arrangement
  • Fire doors form part of the ship's structural fire protection - unauthorised modification or overpainting of seals can invalidate the type approval

Class survey

Note: catalogued under 'Fire Hose' / 'Fire Hoses & Nozzles' - this product (B-15 double door with top panel, type N-MLDD) is a fire-rated steel door, not a fire hose; content above addresses the actual product. B-class fire doors are checked at fire safety surveys for self-closing operation, seal condition, correct marking matching the MED type approval certificate, and freedom from unauthorised modification.

Estimated lifetime: Not applicable in running hours - fire doors are assessed by condition, function testing, and periodic survey rather than a service-hours figure; typically expected to remain serviceable for the vessel's life with seal and closer maintenance.

Makers and authorised dealers rarely quote marine equipment without the vessel. With these details we can check availability and prices faster; without them we may have to ask first, which can cost a few days. If you cannot share the vessel, a photo of the equipment’s rating plate does the same job — send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
