Distinction Doors is launching Neuma fds, a new and fully compliant FD30 composite fire door system.

The system was independently tested to EN1634-1: 2014 by EU notified body test houses and has proven fire resistance with 44 individual test specimens subject to 22 bi-directional fire tests, achieving an average of 45 minutes integrity.

Neuma fds also offers ambient smoke control (EN1634-3:2004), security (PAS24:2016), weather (BS 6375), sound insulation (Approved Document E) and thermal performance (Approved Document L).

The FD30 composite fire door system is accredited by Secured by Design (SBD), the widely respected and long-established official police security initiative with the specific aim to reduce crime and help people live more safely.  Neuma fds meets the SBD Police Preferred Specification security requirements.

The company insists that all stages of the supply chain up to and including doorset manufacture are third-party certified to the BM Trada Q-Mark Fire Door Manufacturer certification scheme. 

The Neuma fds door blank meets the requirements of the Q-Mark Door Blank scheme to STD 047.  The fire entrance door range is stocked and distributed under Q-Mark STD 171. 

The range is available nationwide through a network of official fds doorset manufacturing partners, each selected by fds and audited to meet the non-mandatory requirements of Q-Mark STD 170.

It includes solid or glazed leaf options, with or without overhead glazed fanlights. Five colours are available as standard – black, white, red, blue and anthracite grey, while any RAL colour is an optional extra. 

The doorset also features a choice of low thresholds for internal and external entrance door applications, as well as additional hardwood cill and frame extensions. All replacement parts must be sourced through the third party approved supply chain.

Technical Director, Dave Walker said: “Our objective was to create a compliant system that is proven to consistently meet and exceed British and European standards, giving reassurance and peace of mind to all stakeholders. I am extremely proud to say that now, after two years of development, investment and testing, we have achieved this.

“Clients can be confident that the specified product is manufactured to the highest possible standards under a controlled certification scheme.  We look forward to working with specifiers and clients to implement a robust and proven low maintenance composite fire doorset solution.”
