About
- Alfa Wood Industries, part of Al Yamamah Group, manufactures internal and external wooden doors, fire-rated wooden doors, kitchens, wardrobes and wall cladding in Saudi Arabia. The plant was set up in 2004 and works to designs supplied by the project rather than to a fixed range.
Application
Supplied to hotels, residential compounds, hospitals and offices where the door is a visible finish item and veneer, laminate or paint has to match the joinery package. Fire-rated wooden leaves are used on apartment entrance and corridor openings where the fire rating has to be met without a steel door's appearance.
Standards & Reference 6 cited
SASO standards
The Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization requirements: what a product must meet to be placed on the Saudi market.
BS 476-22
The older British fire resistance test for non-loadbearing elements, tested at roughly neutral furnace pressure. Still cited on UK-legacy specifications alongside EN 1634-1.
EN 1634-1
The European fire resistance test for door and shutter assemblies, and the basis for CE marking a fire door. Built on a different pressure regime from UL 10C, so the two ratings are not interchangeable.
UL 10C
The positive pressure fire test for door assemblies. Positive pressure drives hot gas through any gap between door and frame, which makes it the more demanding test and the one North American codes now call for.
NFPA 80
Not a test but a compliance standard: how fire doors are installed, inspected and maintained, including the annual inspection and the requirement that every fire door self-closes and positively latches.
ANSI/WDMA I.S.1A
The American standard for architectural wood flush doors, covering construction, performance duty level and warranty.
