Fire Stopping Around Doors in Stalybridge

Looking for fire stopping in Stalybridge? We inspect, repair and replace fire doors across Stalybridge and surrounding parts of Greater Manchester, with a door-by-door report and every remedial item priced separately.

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 Stalybridge.

Fire Stopping Around Doors in Stalybridge: questions

Do you work in occupied buildings in Stalybridge?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Stalybridge 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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Stalybridge?

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