Fire Stopping Around Doors in Shropshire
We provide fire stopping works across Shropshire, including Telford, Shrewsbury and Loughton, with the same report format and pricing wherever your buildings are.
Fire Stopping Around Doors: 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.
