IMO ‘B’ Watertight Sliding Fire Door Sign – FS0235

This ‘B’ watertight sliding fire door sign, marked “WT”, identifies a sliding fire door within a ‘B’ class fire division that carries a full watertight rating. ‘B’ class divisions carry a lower fire-resistance rating than ‘A’ class divisions under SOLAS Chapter II-2, and this door runs on a track rather than swinging on hinges, so it must be manually or mechanically closed to restore both the fire division and the watertight boundary.

A watertight sliding fire door left open or chocked on its track loses its protective value the moment it is defeated – both fire integrity and the watertight seal are compromised. This sign reminds crew and passengers to keep the track and door leaf clear and to close the door fully after passing through.

Where this sign is used

Watertight sliding fire doors of this type are commonly fitted at internal ‘B’ class partitions where a hinged door is impractical, such as narrow passageways near galleys, laundries, or other service spaces within accommodation blocks. This watertight sliding fire door sign is mounted directly on or beside the door leaf so it is seen every time the opening is passed through.

Regulatory context

Fire and watertight door classifications follow SOLAS Chapter II-2 and the SOLAS watertight subdivision requirements, which set the fire-resistance rating and watertight standard for doors fitted within ‘B’ class divisions. Surveyors checking every watertight sliding fire door and its signage during inspections expect clear, photoluminescent identification at each opening.

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