Fire-Rated Rolling Door Installation and Service in Cedar Park and Greater Austin
Fire-rated rolling doors are a life-safety system, not just a door. Installed in fire-rated walls and openings, they drop to seal the opening when the fire alarm calls for it, containing a fire and buying time to evacuate. Squared Away installs, services, and drop-tests UL-rated fire-rated rolling doors and fire counter shutters for commercial and industrial buildings across Cedar Park, Round Rock, Georgetown, Austin, and the wider Greater Austin area.
Fire-rated assemblies entail listings, code requirements, and drop-test obligations that a standard door technician is not trained to meet. We handle the spec, the install, the service, and the required testing through a specialist trained on rated assemblies, on Net 30 terms, so your building stays compliant.

Squared Away
The Fire-Rated Doors We Install and Service
Fire-rated closures come in a few forms for a few code situations, and we install and service them across the board.
Fire-rated rolling doors
Coiling steel fire doors that drop to seal a large opening in a fire-rated wall, UL-labeled for the required rating. We install new assemblies and service the barrel, guides, and release mechanism on the ones you run.
Fire counter shutters
Smaller rated shutters that close off a service counter or window in a rated wall, common in schools, hospitals, and mixed-use buildings. They carry the same drop-and-seal function on a counter scale.
Insulated fire doors
Where an opening needs both fire rating and thermal performance, insulated fire-rated doors combine the two. We help you spec the right assembly for the wall and the environment.
Brands we install
We install fire-rated rolling doors from trusted commercial manufacturers, including Cornell Cookson, and service essentially any brand of rated rolling door or shutter already in your building.
Squared Away
The Compliance Behind a Fire-Rated Door
A fire-rated door is only doing its job if it is the right-rated assembly, installed per the listing, and tested to prove it still works. That compliance is the heart of the service.
UL listings and matching the rating
A fire-rated door carries a UL label for a specific rating, and that rating must match the fire-rated wall it sits in. We spec and install the assembly to its listing, because a rated door installed wrong is not a rated door in the eyes of the code.
The automatic closing system
A fire-rated rolling door is held open and released to close by an automatic mechanism tied to the fire alarm or a fusible link. That release, and the controlled speed at which the door drops, are what make the door function in a fire, and they are a key part of what we install and test.
Drop testing keeps it compliant
Rated rolling doors generally must be drop-tested on a set schedule under NFPA 80 to confirm they release, drop, and reset properly. We perform and document that testing through a trained specialist, so your assemblies stay compliant year to year.
Central Texas Conditions
Keeping Fire-Rated Doors Compliant in a Growing Region
As the Greater Austin area grows and inspections tighten, a fire-rated door only protects the building and satisfies the inspector and insurer if it is tested and documented.
Compliance that cannot lapse
A fire-rated door that has not been tested, or that fails and is left unfixed, is both a life-safety gap and a liability. We keep rated assemblies on a drop-test and inspection schedule and document the results, so your building passes inspection, and your coverage holds.
One team for install, service, and testing
Because we install, service, and drop-test rated doors through a trained specialist, you are not juggling a door vendor and a separate testing company. One team keeps the assembly compliant from install through every annual test.
Squared Away
We Service Fire-Rated Doors, and Every Rolling Closure
A fire-rated door is built to last, but the release mechanism, barrel, guides, and drop function all require periodic service and testing to keep the door compliant and operational. We service and drop-test fire-rated rolling doors and counter shutters through a specialist trained on rated assemblies.
And your rated door does not have to be a brand we install for us to help. We service essentially any brand of fire-rated rolling door or shutter, and we handle standard rolling steel, high-speed, and dock doors too, so one team covers the specialty openings most companies send elsewhere.

FAQ
Fire-Rated Rolling Door Questions We Hear
What is a fire-rated rolling door?
+
It is a UL-labeled coiling door installed in a fire-rated wall that drops to seal the opening when the fire alarm signals a fire, containing the fire and smoke. It is a life-safety system rated to resist fire for a set period, typically up to 3 hours, depending on the assembly.
Where are fire-rated doors required?
+
Building and fire codes call for rated doors in fire-rated walls and occupancy separations, over openings between fire areas, and on service counters in rated walls. If your plans or fire marshal call for a rated assembly, it is required, not optional.
What is fire door drop testing?
+
It is the required test that confirms a fire-rated rolling door releases, drops to seal the opening, and resets properly. Rated doors generally must be drop-tested on a set schedule under NFPA 80, and we perform and document it through a trained specialist.
How often do fire doors need to be tested?
+
Rated rolling doors are generally drop-tested annually under NFPA 80, though your local requirements can differ. We put your assemblies on a schedule so a required test never lapses.
Do you service existing fire-rated doors?
+
Yes. We service the release mechanism, barrel, guides, and drop function on fire-rated rolling doors and counter shutters, and we service essentially any brand, whether or not we installed it.
What fire-rated door brands do you install?
+
We install rated rolling doors from trusted commercial manufacturers, including Cornell Cookson, and service essentially any brand of rated door already in your building.
What happens if a fire door fails its drop test?
+
We document the failure, repair the assembly to bring it back into compliance, and then retest to confirm it functions. A failed or untested fire door is both a life-safety gap and a liability, so we treat it as a priority.
How is fire-rated door work priced?
+
Rolling door repairs start with a commercial service call from $250, applied to the work, and new rated assemblies and drop-test programs are quoted after a free on-site assessment. Commercial accounts run on Net 30.
