Fire Stopping Around Doors in Willesden

From the NW10 district outwards, we cover Willesden and neighbouring towns such as Cricklewood and Notting Hill for fire stopping works.

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 Willesden.
