I have an apartment in a resort. My entrance door is fireproof. Do all inside doors (e.g. like a bedroom door) or other doors inside the lot also need to be fireproof?

The only doors for an apartment that need to be fire rated are the ones between the apartment & common areas.

The only doors for an apartment that need to be fire rated are the ones between the apartment & common areas (&/or doors between apartments if it’s a resort with that setup).

Doors inside the apartment do not require fire rating as they are deemed to be within the same fire compartment.
