Fire Stopping Around Doors in Kilmarnock

Looking for fire stopping in Kilmarnock? We inspect, repair and replace fire doors across Kilmarnock and surrounding parts of Ayrshire, with a door-by-door report and every remedial item priced separately.

Fire stopping is the sealing of gaps and openings in fire-resisting walls and floors so fire and smoke cannot pass through. Around a fire door it mainly means the gap between the door frame and the wall, which must be sealed as well as the door itself. We use the same method for buildings in Kilmarnock.

Fire Stopping Around Doors in Kilmarnock: questions

Do you need to remove architraves?

Often, yes. The frame gap is usually hidden behind the architrave, so we remove and refit it to inspect and seal properly.

Does regulation 10 apply in Kilmarnock?

No. Kilmarnock 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.

Can you fire stop a whole building?

This service covers fire stopping around doors and nearby penetrations. Wider compartmentation surveys need a specialist survey, which we can arrange.

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

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