Fire Stopping Around Doors in Cheshunt

Looking for fire stopping in Cheshunt? We inspect, repair and replace fire doors across Cheshunt and surrounding parts of Hertfordshire, 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 Cheshunt.

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.

Cheshunt is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Cheshunt?

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

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.
