Living in Australia offers a lifestyle beyond compare. But the threat of bushfires is never far from your doorstep and needs to be considered when building or renovating. Australian Standards outline different construction practices and building materials for five bushfire hazard levels, known as Bushfire Attack Levels (BALs).
BAL 12.5: Low
BAL 19: Moderate
BAL 29: High
BAL 40: Very high
BAL FZ: Flame zone
Corinthian offers a large range of doors designed and manufactured to meet the regulatory requirements of building to BAL 40 standards. To determine your home’s BAL rating, and any special requirements for building in your area, consult your local council, government, or local fire authority.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
- Entrance doors MUST be installed in weather-protected openings;
- You should avoid getting your doors wet, even after finishing/sealing; and
- NEVER hose your door down.
