NSW Apartment/Class3 Entry Doors.

Page 1 of 1
Hi I been looking for quotes to replace my entry door to my studio/dwelling, I damaged it myself although it was on the way out but splitting costs with strata, does anyone know if these types of doors need to be a Fire door like everyone refers to them as or a solid core fire rated door which are alot cheaper but still get 60/90 mins fire rating, proper fire doors are the ones on stairwell exits/hallways, anyone know of the regulation for entry doors to dwellings, are solid core fire rated doors with closers the norm, its a old building, but with a upgrade probably have to get the seals etc as well to meet current standard, so Fire Door V solid core door or they just both the same.
Your strata manager should be all over the regs concerning this and be able to give you the right advice.

Your apartment, does "the" door open onto a common hall? is the hall enclosed within the building or an open hall (open on the sides - external walk way?). On the hinge side of the door is there a plate fixed to the frame or the door advising a FRL (Fire Rating Level).
