Fire-rated doors are designed to slow the spread of fire and smoke within commercial buildings.

Fire-Rated Door Services
Fire-rated doors play a critical role in commercial building safety, and they’re often one of the first things inspectors focus on.
When installed and maintained correctly, these doors help contain fire, limit smoke migration, and buy valuable time for occupants to exit safely.
Parker Custom Security provides installation, replacement, repair, and inspection services for fire-rated doors in commercial and institutional properties.
We work with property managers, residential apartment buildings, building owners, schools, religious institutions, and municipal facilities that need doors to function properly day to day and hold up when inspections happen.

Installation & Replacement Services
We install and replace fire-rated doors in new construction, renovation projects, and existing buildings where doors no longer meet performance or inspection expectations.
Our installation work includes:
- New fire-rated door installation
- Replacement of damaged or non-compliant doors
- Proper fitting of the door, frame, and hardware
- Alignment and operational testing
The goal is simple: doors that operate smoothly, hold their rating, and don’t create issues later on.
Repairs, Adjustments & Upgrades
Fire-rated doors take a lot of daily use. Over time, misalignment, damaged components, or incorrect hardware can cause problems that show up during inspections.
We handle:
- Fire-rated door repairs
- Door and frame alignment
- Hardware adjustment or replacement
- Performance upgrades where appropriate
If a door can be repaired and brought back into proper working condition, we’ll tell you. When replacement makes more sense, we’ll explain why so there are no surprises.
Inspections & Compliance Preparation
Parker Custom Security offers standalone fire-rated door inspections and condition reports for commercial properties.
Property managers often bring us in before an inspection to make sure nothing gets flagged unnecessarily. Our inspections help identify common issues early, so they can be addressed on your timeline.
We can:
- Inspect existing fire-rated doors
- Identify common deficiencies
- Document issues that may affect inspections
- Recommend corrective actions
We also work with owners to prepare properties for upcoming DOB or FDNY inspections by addressing door-related issues ahead of time.
We do not pull permits or act as the Authority Having Jurisdiction. Our role is to help buildings become inspection-ready by correcting door and hardware issues before official inspections take place.

Hollow Metal Doors
A common choice for stairwells, corridors, mechanical rooms, and multi-unit buildings. Hollow metal doors are durable, dependable, and widely accepted for fire-rated applications.
Aluminum Doors
Often used in storefronts and commercial entrances where permitted. These doors offer strength and a clean appearance while meeting applicable fire-rating requirements.
Doors With Vision Glass
Used in locations where visibility is needed and permitted. These systems must meet specific limitations and are selected carefully based on the space.
Kalamein Doors
Steel-clad, wood-core doors typically used in historic or architecturally sensitive buildings that still require fire-rated performance.
Hardware Considerations
“Secure, compliant, and durable.”
Fire-rated door hardware plays a big role in how a door performs and whether it passes inspection. Parker Custom Security is certified and experienced with a wide range of commercial hardware systems.
Our team recommends the correct hardware application based on the door type, fire rating, and how the door is used.
Detailed hardware specifications and brand information are covered during each installation or maintenance appointment.
