Fire Stopping Around Doors in Bradford

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

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 Bradford.

Fire Stopping Around Doors in Bradford: questions

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Bradford?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Bradford is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.

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.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Bradford?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Bradford 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.
