Selecting the perfect fire rated digital locks for your property involves careful consideration of various factors.

What is required to ensure that a digital lock is fire rated

To determine whether a digital lock is fire rated, you must look for these three essential factors.:

The lock mechanism should be able to repeatedly open and close many times without failure, even when exposed to high heat. This verifies its durability and reliability during a fire emergency. Normally it’s recommended to select digital locks that have passed 100k to 200k cyclic testing.

2)Fire resistance rating

Look for a digital lock that has been tested and certified to Singapore’s fire safety standards. At HDDOOR, we have 30 mins as well as 60 mins fire rated digital lock, which is recommended for fire rated door. This means it has undergone rigorous testing under high-temperature conditions to validate its fire rating and resistance. 

3)Conformed to SS 332:2018+A1:2022

The digital lock should have an established fire rating of 30 mins or 60 mins (varies with each model), indicating it has been tested in conjunction with the door to prove it can resist fire for a 30mins / 60mins.
