NFPA 80: Standard for Fire Doors and Other Opening Protectives
When it comes to building fire safety, staying up to date with the latest edition of NFPA 80 is essential. This standard plays a critical role in protecting lives and property by ensuring that fire doors, windows, dampers, and other opening protectives perform as intended during a fire.
Referenced by NFPA 101: Life Safety Code, as well as building and fire codes around the world, NFPA 80 provides clear requirements for the installation, inspection, testing, and maintenance of fire-rated assemblies. Properly maintained openings help contain fire and smoke, supporting safe evacuation and limiting damage.
Whether you’re a manufacturer, contractor, engineer, inspector, authority having jurisdiction (AHJ), or building owner, NFPA 80 gives you the guidance needed to stay compliant and ensure fire protection systems are always ready when needed.
