The Howdens Holdenby Oak FD30 fire door combines the popular cottage-style Holdenby design with an FD30-rated internal fire-door leaf. Grafton Carpentry supplies and professionally fits Holdenby Oak fire doors across Leicester and locations within roughly one hour.
About the Holdenby Oak FD30 fire door
This internal fire door has narrow vertical grooves, an engineered veneered-particleboard construction and a real oak veneer. It provides the natural grain and warm appearance of oak without being made from solid oak throughout.
The door is supplied unfinished and unglazed. It is available in several common imperial and metric sizes, selected using the options above. Before ordering, the opening, existing frame and project requirements must be assessed so the correct product and installation method can be confirmed.
What does FD30 mean?
FD30 identifies a fire-resisting door product tested to resist fire for a stated period of 30 minutes under specified test conditions. It does not mean that fitting an FD30-labelled leaf into any existing frame will automatically create a compliant fire door.
Fire-door performance depends on the complete, compatible installed assembly. Depending on the location and applicable requirements, this can include the door leaf, frame, intumescent and smoke seals, fire-rated hinges, latch, closer and other ironmongery, together with correct gaps and installation details.
The suitability of this product for a particular opening should therefore be checked against its certification, the building design and any requirements identified by Building Control, a fire-risk assessment or another relevant professional. Our quotation will distinguish between fitting a suitable leaf into an appropriate existing arrangement and any additional work or components needed.
This Holdenby FD30 door is unglazed
This particular product is an unglazed fire-door leaf. Customers searching for an internal fire door with glass need a separately tested glazed fire-door product or doorset with compatible fire-rated glazing. A standard glazed door should never be assumed to provide FD30 performance.
Browse our wider internal fire door range, or ask us to help identify the most suitable option for the room and opening.
Finishing the unfinished oak veneer
The oak veneer requires a suitable protective finish after any permitted preparation and fitting adjustments. The selected finishing product and application method must follow the manufacturer’s instructions and must not cover or remove certification labels.
A suitable clear finish can retain a lighter natural appearance, while an appropriate tinted finish may deepen the colour. Oak grain and tone vary naturally, so the finished appearance can differ between doors. Optional oiling protection is available where shown above.
Professional FD30 fire-door fitting
Fire-door installation requires more than ordinary door hanging. We assess the opening and frame, confirm the required components, prepare the door within permitted tolerances and check alignment and clearances after fitting.
- Opening, frame condition and required door size assessed
- Product certification and compatible components considered
- Suitable hinges, latch, seals and closer requirements confirmed
- Door fitted and aligned within the relevant installation requirements
- Operation, gaps and visible installation details checked on completion
Standard handle packs are included with fitted door jobs, but fire-rated or specialist ironmongery and any frame or doorset work may affect the final quotation.

The displayed price is per door and includes fitting. Your final total depends on the chosen size, number of doors, the condition and suitability of the existing frame, finishing choices and any additional fire-door components required for the opening.

Frequently asked questions
Is this Holdenby FD30 door glazed?
No. This product is an unglazed fire-door leaf. A fire door with glass must use a suitably tested and compatible glazed product or doorset.
Does an FD30 leaf make an existing opening compliant?
Not by itself. The frame, seals, hinges, ironmongery, gaps and installation must all be suitable and compatible with the required fire-door specification.
Is the door solid oak?
No. It uses an engineered veneered-particleboard construction with a real oak veneer.
Does the unfinished oak need sealing?
Yes. A suitable protective finish should be applied in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions without obscuring certification labels.
