Fire Stopping Around Doors in Royton

From the OL2 district outwards, we cover Royton and neighbouring towns such as Chadderton and Oldham 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.

Questions from Royton clients

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Royton?

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

Do you work in occupied buildings in Royton?

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

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.

Will I get photos?

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