My local planning officer has specified that we have an exterior FD60-rated fire door on my extension which is about to be built. I [b]was[/b] hoping to have uPVC doors and windows all-round.
I have managed to find some uPVC fire doors on the internet with a lower fire-rating. Has anyone ever come across any FD60 uPVC doors, or am I going to have to go for a wood or metal door?

Hi... I just did a little surfing and found a traditional door, albeit wood fire door may be clad in UPVC to conform to FD60... Google:

There are different styles to choose from... Hope this helps.
