Fire Stopping Around Doors in Craigavon

Fire Stopping Around Doors in Craigavon, County Armagh: every door logged, photographed and graded, with a clear price for anything that needs putting right.

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 Craigavon.

Questions from Craigavon clients

Is expanding foam acceptable around a fire door frame?

Only a fire-rated foam with evidence for that use and gap size. Ordinary expanding foam is not suitable. BS 8214:2026 lists acceptable approaches such as suitable mastics, foams and stone wool.

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 Craigavon?

No. Craigavon is in Northern Ireland, where the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 apply.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Craigavon?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Craigavon can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
