Fire Stopping Around Doors in Chichester
Need fire stopping in Chichester? 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 Chichester.

Fire Stopping Around Doors in Chichester: questions
Which fire safety law applies in Chichester?
Chichester 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.
Will I get photos?
Yes. Every sealed location is photographed before and after, and logged.
How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Chichester?
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.
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.
