Fire Stopping Around Doors in the East Riding of Yorkshire

Our fire stopping works cover the whole of the East Riding of Yorkshire, across local authorities including City of Kingston-upon-Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire.

Fire Stopping Around Doors: 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.
