Fire Stopping Around Doors in Tyldesley

We provide fire stopping works for buildings in Tyldesley and the M29 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

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 Tyldesley.

Tyldesley FAQs

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.

Will I get photos?

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

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Tyldesley?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Tyldesley?

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