↳ What does T30 mean?

30 minutes of fire resistance — the most common requirement.

A T30 fire door withstands fire and heat in the standard fire test for at least 30 minutes. The test covers integrity (E), insulation (I) and mechanical resistance per EN 1634-1. Classification is T30 to DIN 4102-5 or EI₂30 to EN 13501-2 — both designations are recognised in Germany. A T30 door is self-closing and forms — together with frame, hardware and seals — a single approved assembly. With the suffix "-RS" it is additionally smoke-tight per DIN 18095 — required wherever escape routes must remain free of smoke.
