Fire Stopping Around Doors in Crowthorne

Need fire stopping in Crowthorne? Tell us the building and roughly how many doors, and we will confirm a fixed price before booking.

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 Crowthorne.

Fire Stopping Around Doors in Crowthorne: questions

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Crowthorne?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Crowthorne is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.

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.

Do you cover the area around Crowthorne?

Yes. As well as Crowthorne itself we cover nearby towns including Sandhurst, Yateley and Camberley.

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.
