Fire Door Gap Adjustment in Bordon

Whether it is a block of flats, a school or a care home in Bordon, our fire door gap adjustments follow the same door-by-door method and report format.

Fire door gap adjustment is the work needed to bring the gaps between a fire door leaf and its frame, and under the door, back within the tolerance in the door's evidence, typically 2 to 4 mm around the edges. We use the same method for buildings in Bordon.

Bordon FAQs

Why do gaps open up over time?

Hinges wear and drop, frames shrink or move, leaves warp, and doors are sometimes planed after flooring changes. Each needs a different repair.

Which fire safety law applies in Bordon?

Bordon is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

Can you price remedial work in Bordon from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Bordon, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

Can you fix a big gap with a thicker intumescent strip?

Not as a general rule. Seals are tested for a particular gap; using oversized seals to hide a poor fit is not a reliable repair.
