Re: 84" Fire Rated Doors...

Are you looking for 1¾" solid core wood ?
Any good lumber yard should be able to supply those.
Or do you need like 3 hour steel?

Call a few commercail door and harware suppliers. You're not going to find those types of doors hanging around in a lumber yard. Special order for sure.

I'm sure that Tru-Stile makes them up to 8'.
Surely someone in CT handles them.
Like Jason said check the Yellow Pages.
