Firewood Pass Through from Garage Fire Rating

We are planning on building a new house in northern Idaho next year. The current design shows the wood stove being in the living room on a wall that backs to the garage. I'd love to put in some type of pass through where I put wood into the box in the garage and take it out near the stove. I've seen others mention this, but I'm wondering if I am going to run into an issue with the box and door being fire rated? Seems that code for doors that enter from the garage have to have a certain fire rating, so I'd think that other penetrations like this firewood pass through would also.
Has anyone already solved this problem and is so, please share how.

Have you thought about a covered patio that is on a slab where you can stack wood and entertain? A slider onto this patio would work nicely. It was integrated into the roofline and was not an add on looking patio.

I have seen this in a home and thought it was a great idea. The owner burned pellets and had the delivery guy fork truck right onto the slab. Perfect..zero moving of inventory.

During the summer this patio was a great entertaining space with lights, picnic table, ceiling fan and grill.

I know I'm not answering the question you asked....just throwing out another thought.

No problem. I'm going to make another post to get a more whole house design discussion. Thanks.
