Fire Stopping Around Doors in Blackheath

Blackheath landlords, managing agents and facilities teams can book fire stopping works with straightforward reports and fixed prices.

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.

Fire Stopping Around Doors in Blackheath: questions

Will I get photos?

Yes. Every sealed location is photographed before and after, and logged.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Blackheath?

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

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Blackheath?

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