Fire Door Repairs in Dumfries & Galloway: questions
Can you fill a large gap with extra intumescent strip?
Not as a general fix. Gaps outside tolerance are usually corrected by re-hanging, lipping or adjusting the frame, because oversized intumescent strips are not a substitute for a door that fits.
Can you repair a fire door from photos?
We can usually diagnose and price common faults from clear photos of the whole door, the edges and the hardware. Some faults, such as a warped leaf, need a site visit to measure.
Does regulation 10 apply in Dumfries & Galloway?
No. Dumfries & Galloway is in Scotland, which has its own fire safety law. The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 cover workplaces, HMOs and other non-domestic premises; common parts of private blocks of flats are largely outside them.
