Fire-Rated Door Assemblies

Fire-rated door assemblies are a standard requirement across San Antonio commercial construction. Texas jurisdictions adopt local versions of the IBC and IFC to govern fire-rated opening requirements in commercial occupancies throughout the state. Industrial and logistics facilities, healthcare and education buildings, and municipal and government structures throughout the San Antonio metro require fire-rated assemblies in egress corridors, stairwells, occupancy separation walls, and mechanical and electrical rooms.

CDF supplies hollow metal fire-rated doors and frames across the full supported rating range: 20-minute, 45-minute, 60-minute, 90-minute, and 3-hour. Welded frames support fire ratings up to 3 hours. Knockdown frames support ratings up to 90 minutes. For masonry wall applications requiring 3-hour rated assemblies, welded frames are required. All metal frames are 16-gauge steel.

Industrial and logistics facilities throughout San Antonio’s growing distribution and manufacturing corridor require fire-rated assemblies at occupancy separation walls, equipment rooms, and storage areas. Healthcare and education facilities require fire-rated corridor and stairwell assemblies with ratings as specified by the design professional. Municipal and government buildings frequently require fire-rated openings at egress and occupancy separation points across multiple rating levels.

ProBuilder is used to structure fire-rated door assemblies, helping coordinate label compatibility across door, frame, and hardware selections. When configuring assemblies requiring 90-minute or 3-hour ratings, ProBuilder shows compatible hardware options organized by rating. Consult with the project’s design professional for final compliance verification.

All fire-rated assemblies must be installed per the manufacturer’s listed instructions and NFPA 80 requirements. Verify all code requirements with project specifications and the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).

Building Envelope and Exterior Assembly Performance

San Antonio’s climate includes meaningful humidity, periodic condensation risk, and seasonal temperature variation that affect exterior door and frame performance over time. The IBC-based Texas building code sets requirements for exterior commercial openings including wind exposure and weatherization standards applicable to the San Antonio region.

Exterior openings in San Antonio’s industrial, logistics, healthcare, and municipal facilities benefit from door and frame selections that account for long-term finish durability and moisture management. Hollow metal doors are supplied primed and ready to paint. Finish selection for exterior applications should account for durability and the specific exposure conditions of the opening, including humidity and temperature cycling characteristic of South Texas.

Weatherization kits, including perimeter weatherstripping, door sweep, and threshold, are recommended for all exterior applications. These components reduce air and moisture infiltration and support building envelope performance. Weatherization kits are screw-mounted, not adhesive-applied. ADA-compliant threshold options are available.

When configuring exterior assemblies in ProBuilder, door gauge, frame type, and weatherization selections are reviewed as part of the complete assembly. ProBuilder helps organize component selections and flag potential conflicts before order submission. Final building envelope requirements must be confirmed by the project’s design professional and the AHJ.

Texas Accessibility Standards (TAS) and ADA Compliance

Commercial projects in Texas are subject to both federal ADA requirements and Texas Accessibility Standards (TAS), administered by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR). TAS applies to new construction and renovations throughout Texas and includes specific provisions for door hardware, threshold height, clear opening width, and opening force at accessible commercial openings.

Leversets are ADA-compliant locking devices and are the standard hardware choice for accessible commercial openings. ADA-compliant threshold options are available through CDF. When configuring assemblies in ProBuilder, hardware mounting heights and ADA-relevant selections can be documented as part of the configuration workflow. This documentation supports TAS compliance notes commonly required for healthcare, education, and municipal and government projects throughout San Antonio and surrounding Bexar County.

Door closers are required on many fire-rated openings and are standard on high-traffic egress doors throughout San Antonio’s institutional and government construction. Opening force requirements at accessible openings must be verified with the design professional and the AHJ to confirm compliance with TAS provisions.

Products for San Antonio Commercial Projects

CDF supplies commercial door products across the categories most commonly required in San Antonio’s industrial, healthcare, education, and municipal construction.

Commercial Hollow Metal Doors. Hollow metal doors are available in 12-18-gauge steel, primed and ready to paint. Stock hollow metal doors are 18-gauge. All metal frames are 16-gauge steel. Custom sizing and hardware prep are available. Fire ratings up to 3 hours are supported. Hollow metal doors are used throughout San Antonio’s industrial, institutional, and government projects where durability and code compliance drive specification.

Commercial Welded Frames. Welded frames are shipped as one unit and are preferred for masonry and block wall applications. Welded frames support fire ratings up to 3 hours and are required for 3-hour rated assemblies.

Commercial Knockdown Frames. Knockdown frames ship in three pieces for drywall and retrofit applications. They support fire ratings up to 90 minutes and are commonly used in healthcare, office, and multi-tenant commercial interior construction.

Commercial Wood Doors. Wood doors are for interior applications. They are available with lite kits, louvers, and stain options including ebony and natural birch. Wood doors are not recommended for exterior use and are commonly specified in healthcare, education, and office interior applications.

Storefront Doors. Aluminum storefront doors are suitable for building entries and lobby applications. Options include sidelites and transoms. Storefront doors include preinstalled weatherstripping, wool pile, and sweep.

Metal Building Doors. Pre-hung metal building doors are designed for metal structures with girts and mount directly to steel beams. These doors are used in San Antonio’s industrial and logistics facilities throughout the city’s growing distribution and manufacturing corridor. They are not suitable for installation on interior walls or structures without girts.

Commercial Door Hardware. Hardware categories include leversets, mortise locksets, exit devices, door closers, hinges, deadbolts, and weatherization kits. Hardware brands available through CDF include Schlage, Accentra, Hager, Sargent, Falcon, Corbin Russwin, and others. Hardware is selected through ProBuilder or with sales team support.

Configuration for San Antonio Industrial and Institutional Projects

San Antonio’s commercial construction activity spans a wide range of project types: industrial and logistics facilities in the city’s North Side and Loop 410 corridor, healthcare campuses concentrated around the South Texas Medical Center, and municipal and government buildings distributed throughout Bexar County and the surrounding region. Each of these project categories places specific demands on commercial door assembly configuration.

When configuring assemblies in ProBuilder for San Antonio industrial and institutional projects, door gauge and reinforcement needs are reviewed alongside hardware grade and closer selection. ProBuilder supports selection of hardware preps and assembly configurations aligned to occupancy and egress requirements. For egress doors in industrial, healthcare, and municipal occupancies, exit devices are commonly required. Where the opening is fire-rated, exit devices must also be fire-rated and cannot be dogged down. Mortise locksets are commonly specified for high-traffic applications in healthcare corridors, education buildings, and government facilities, offering longer service life than cylindrical locksets and the ability to be repaired in the field. Consult with the project’s design professional for final compliance verification.
