IMO ‘B’ Self-Closing Fire Door Sign – FS0147

This ‘B’ self-closing fire door sign, marked with a downward self-closing swing arrow, identifies a hinged fire door within a ‘B’ class fire division. ‘B’ class divisions carry a lower fire-resistance rating than ‘A’ class divisions under SOLAS Chapter II-2, and this door’s self-closing mechanism swings shut automatically after use, restoring the division’s fire integrity without relying on crew action.

A self-closing fire door propped or wedged open loses its protective value the moment it is defeated – smoke and flame can pass straight through the division it was fitted to seal. This sign reminds crew and passengers to let the door close and never obstruct its swing.

Where this self-closing fire door sign is used

Self-closing fire doors of this type are fitted at ‘B’ class partition openings throughout accommodation areas, including corridors, cabin bulkheads, and internal stairwells, wherever a fire division is broken by a doorway. The self-closing fire door sign is mounted directly on or beside the door leaf so it is seen every time the door is passed through.

Crew training and drills should always cover the correct operation of every self-closing fire door on board, since a door that fails to latch fully can compromise the fire integrity of the division it protects. Surveyors checking every self-closing fire door and its signage during inspections expect clear, photoluminescent identification at each opening.

Regulatory context

Fire door and division classifications follow SOLAS Chapter II-2 and the associated Fire Safety Systems Code, which set the fire-resistance rating and self-closing requirements for doors fitted within ‘B’ class divisions.

Installing this self-closing fire door sign is straightforward: the peel-and-stick backing adheres directly to the door leaf or adjacent bulkhead, and the photoluminescent film charges under normal lighting so the pictogram remains visible if power and lighting are lost.
