An elevator shaft door having a door panel composed of a front wall and rear wall, which walls are connected together by a thermally releasable material, wherein at least a part of the closing edge of the respective door panels consists of a profile member that is formed by the back wall or thermally non-detachably fastened to the back wall. In the case of a fire, the back wall separates from the front wall through release of the thermally releasable material, wherein the front wall curves by heat effect while the back wall with the closing edge retains the original shape.
