Fire Stopping Around Doors in Halesowen

Whether it is a block of flats, a school or a care home in Halesowen, our fire stopping works follow the same door-by-door method and report format.

In short: 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.

Questions from Halesowen clients

Can you price remedial work in Halesowen from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Halesowen, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

Which fire safety law applies in Halesowen?

Halesowen 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.

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.

Is expanding foam acceptable around a fire door frame?

Only a fire-rated foam with evidence for that use and gap size. Ordinary expanding foam is not suitable. BS 8214:2026 lists acceptable approaches such as suitable mastics, foams and stone wool.
