Not every hazard room needs the same level of fire door protection, but the level must match the risk behind it.
A hazard room storing flammable materials calls for a different specification than current guidance would expect for a standard FD30S door.
Current guidance indicates hazard rooms should be protected with doorset performance appropriate to the risk, typically, FD60S, unless a justified fire engineering approach supports a lower specification.
Getting this right means understanding what current standards actually require for that specific use, and being able to show the reasoning behind whatever door specification is in place.
