Hi,
I have a 3 floor HMO, with a loft conversion as the 3rd floor.
I facilitate access to the void under the pitched roof, I have has a 'hatch' constructed in the Purlin wall.
As an HMO the wall and doors must be 30 minutes fire protecting.
The hatch is approx 800x600mm, 120mm thick, made from 9mm MDF, encasing 100mm Cellotex - but with the MDF all round.
Is there a way to make this hatch door 30 minute Fireproof, would a 'Fireboard' fixed on top of the MDF comply ?
Thanks
