Short title	Fire-resistant walls and a self-closing door separate a protected route from fire and smoke.
Image title	Plan view. A fire compartment with fire and smoke adjoins a protected route enclosed by a hatched fire-resistant boundary; the doorway between them has a closed, self-closing fire door, so the protected route stays clear and leads to a safe destination outside. For comparison, an open route below is connected to the fire compartment through an opening without a door, and smoke spreads into it.
