Fire Stopping Around Doors in Brent

Need fire stopping in Brent? 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 Brent.

Questions from Brent clients

Will I get photos?

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

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Brent?

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

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 cover the area around Brent?

Yes. As well as Brent itself we cover nearby towns including Wembley, Harrow and Greenford.
