Fire-Rated Doors – Comparing RIPO IMF 65, IMF T30 and IMF T90

Choosing fire-rated doors for industrial and interior applications. In manufacturing facilities, warehouses or office buildings, the risk of fire incidents is significantly higher. That is why choosing the right fire-rated doors is critical — they not only protect property and people, but also ensure compliance with safety regulations.

In this article, we compare three popular models from RIPO International: IMF 65, IMF T30, and IMF T90. Let’s look at their key features and see which one is best suited for your project.

Quick Overview of the Models

Model Intended Use Fire Resistance / Certification Features & Benefits
RIPO IMF 65 Sectional doors / exterior structures EI1 90 (EN 1634-1) Can be manufactured up to 5250 × 5250 mm
RIPO IMF T30 Interior doors Certified EN 1634-1; smoke-tight EN 1634-3 Wide RAL color range, fast installation

How to Choose the Right Fire-Rated Doors – Practical Tips

  1. Evaluate size and function
    If you need a large sectional door, IMF 65 is the go-to choice. For interior solutions, T30 or T90 are often more suitable.

  2. Define fire safety and smoke protection requirements
    If smoke-tightness is a requirement, choose T30 with the appropriate certification. For higher safety levels — for example, in industrial or high-risk zones — T90 provides advanced protection.

  3. Budget and long-term maintenance
    For many projects, T30 offers the best balance between cost and functionality. If your budget allows and you need enhanced fire protection, T90 is a premium solution.

  4. Aesthetics and customization
    If doors are visible daily, pay attention to design. Both T30 and T90 offer a wide RAL color palette, galvanized or stainless-steel finishes, and customized options to match your interior.

  5. Warranty and service
    Choose a manufacturer with a proven track record, reliable warranty, and service — ensuring safety and durability for years to come.
