FERRO FireSafe
THE FIRE RESISTAN LIFE SAVER
FERRO FireSafe can save lives! With FERRO FireSafe external door blanks you can produce high quality, comprehensively tested fire-resistant external doors. Moralt has all the necessary certification and compiled the know-how for you: ask us about the Moralt FERRO documentation. FERRO FireSafe, manufactured from high quality components; engineered timber core, high quality laminated and finger-jointed timber stiles and rails and with a wide variety of weatherproof face options. The 2 part flat steel stabilizer is thermally separated and thus preventing thermal bridges The specialist door core can be processed easily and cost-effectively using standard woodworking tools. All FERRO FireSafe products achieve excellent CE performance properties according to EN 14351-1.
In addition to its fire resistance, the FERRO FireSafe ClimateSoft door core is the product for excellent thermal insulation. Furthermore the FERRO FireSafe Passive model even achieves the required thermal insulation values for low-energy and Passivhaus buildings as certified by the Passivhaus Institute . It creates the best conditions for a comfortable indoor climate thanks to its high level of thermal insulation and its sophisticated design. Lastly, the FERRO FireSafe Acoustic door core offers fire rating as well as excellent sound insulation, leaving all noise outside.
QUALITY FEATURES:
The 5-layer veneer board
A 5-layer, AW-glued veneer plywood panel made from carefully selected woods.
Advantages:
- The decorative veneer layer consists of high-quality, sliced – or Fineline veneers, which are joint-glued together as shown. Our recommendation is to shorten the blank at both ends.
- The Moralt external door blank achieves a visual veneer structure on both sides, which corresponds to a door of very high quality.
Burglary resistance
Better safe than sorry: Our blanks offer all the prerequisites for producing burglary-resistant front doors: resistance class RC3/ RC2 according to DIN EN 1627: 1999-04 on the surface of the blank.
Flat steel stabilizer
A flat steel stabilizer consisting of two flat pieces of steel grooved into the wood and glued over the entire surface. This works according to the static principle of tension and compression.
Advantages compared to a U-shaped steel and square profiles:
- No thermal bridge due to thermal separation of the two pieces of steel .
- Free of cavities, so no condensation forms inside.
- The flat steel stabilizers do not show on the surface even when the building moisture is high.
- Low weight by avoiding unnecessary steel joints.
Frame
Unmistakable handcrafted charm: Our stiles and rails are made of solid, carefully selected - or laminated, finger-jointed timber.
PUR rigid foam
Highly recommended: The inner core is made of polyurethane.
Advantages:
- Low weight, excellent thermal insulation.
- Foam can withstand extreme temperatures: short-term up to 250 °C/482 °F, long-term up to 110 °C/230 °F.
- Compressive strength is sufficient to place insulating glass on it in the light cutout.
- Thanks to production under controlled conditions, the polyurethane quality is continuously at a high level.
LVL core middle layer
The LVL core with upright-standing annual rings, consisting of approx. 5 mm wide peeled veneers glued together. The optimum strength is attained through offset joints within the inner core layer.
Advantages:
- Highest Highest strength values from the offset laminated joints.
- Optimum surface smoothness thanks to the even distribution of the individual veneers and the consistent position of the annual rings.
Local wood species
The LVL core with upright-standing annual rings, consisting of approx. 5 mm wide peeled veneers glued together. The optimum strength is attained through offset joints within the inner core layer.
Advantages:
- Highest Highest strength values from the offset laminated joints.
- Optimum surface smoothness thanks to the even distribution of the individual veneers and the consistent position of the annual rings.
