Fire Stopping Around Doors in Shepherds Bush

We provide fire stopping works for buildings in Shepherds Bush and the W12 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

In short: 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.

Questions from Shepherds Bush clients

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 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.

Do you cover the area around Shepherds Bush?

Yes. As well as Shepherds Bush itself we cover nearby towns including Notting Hill, Chiswick and Fulham.

Which fire safety law applies in Shepherds Bush?

Shepherds Bush is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.
