Fire Stopping Around Doors in Saddleworth

Fire Stopping Around Doors in Saddleworth, Greater Manchester: every door logged, photographed and graded, with a clear price for anything that needs putting right.

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 Saddleworth.
