Questions from Cleckheaton clients

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

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Cleckheaton, 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.

Which fire safety law applies in Cleckheaton?

Cleckheaton 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.

What gap is allowed around a fire door?

Most guidance and manufacturers' evidence expect gaps of about 2 to 4 mm at the head and edges, with 3 mm as a practical target. The door's own certification or test evidence takes precedence if it states a different figure.
