Fire Stopping Around Doors in Falkirk

Need fire stopping in Falkirk? Tell us the building and roughly how many doors, and we will confirm a fixed price before booking.

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 Falkirk.
