Pacific ARMASHIELD-FR Door Set -/120/-

 

The Pacific Armashield-FR door set is an all-steel security door set, hung in a steel frame. The door set is designed for resistance to attack to the outside (hinge) face. Test results refer to a single leaf hinged door set.

For other door sets fully tested for burglar resistance, fire resistance, bullet resistance and explosion resistance, refer to the Pacific Protector Series.

This door set is suitable for both interior and sheltered exterior use.

Test results apply to a single door only, with the specification and hardware described.

Wall Type Fire Resistance Rating (FRR) Door Application Max Leaf
Height (mm)
Max Leaf
Width (mm)
Masonry -/120/- Single 2168 1021
Masonry -/90/- Single 2700 1200

Notes:

  1. Sizes outside of this range are possible, but this will affect the fire rating of the door set.
  2. Minimum width for a fire door leaf is governed by the need to fit a compliant closer. Typically, 400 mm is the practical minimum.

Security Testing

A hinged Armashield-FR door set with Surelock McGill D4 three point locking was subjected to a Level 4 attack according to AS3555-1988 "Building Elements - Testing and Rating for Intruder Resistance".

Two men attacked the door set with common hand & power tools and succeeded in removing the door leaf from its frame (thus forming an opening in the door set) after 27 minutes 30 seconds.

Ballistic Testing

The standard Armashield-FR door set has been successfully tested to AS/NZS 2343:1997 “Bullet resistant panels and elements” with ratings of:

  • G2 .44 Magnum
  • S0 Shotgun 12 gauge 32g SG shot

A version of the Armashield-FR is available tested to R2 rating.

Ballistic rated door sets require either a fully-grouted frame installation to masonry or concrete walls, or else ballistic protection built into the frame during manufacture. Matching Ballistic Wall Panels are described in a separate section.

Fire-rated Armashield hardware

The fire-rated Armashield-FR door set may be fitted with a range of security hardware:

-        locksets with steel or brass latching components for FRR -/60/-
-        locksets with only steel latching components for FRR -/120/-
-        any closers, pull handles and minor items of hardware provided they are non-combustible and fixed with steel fasteners.

Note that fitting of deadlocks and other non-self-latching hardware will make the door set non-compliant in respect to the standard NZS 4520 Fire-resistant door sets.
