Letterbox, door viewer, air transfer grills must be tested or otherwise approved for use with Forza fire-rated doors, they must be fitted fully in accordance with manufacturer instructions including all intumescent liners and cloaking grilles/beads.
Restrictions on the maximum size and placement of any aperture, in which must also be included in the total area permitted for apertures.
