Hi,
I've recently bought my first house which requires its fair share of work and up to about a fortnight ago I hadn't so much as painted a skirting board so its a steep learning curve at the moment.

Anyway to the point our utility connects to our kitchen and there is no door in the doorway. The utility is all single brick wall with no insulation. We therefore want to reduce the heat loss and I was wondering if installing a fire door would have much benefit over a standard door for heat insulation or if it would just be a waste of money which would be better spent on other things such as saving towards a new boiler to replace the 38yr old one we currently have.

thanks for any responses in advanced.

A fire door differs from your bog-standard door because it's either fire resistant, or it's both fire and smoke resistant. for more details visit:
