Fire Stopping Around Doors in Leeds

From the LS1 district outwards, we cover Leeds and neighbouring towns such as Morley and Pudsey for fire stopping works.

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.

Common questions in Leeds

Do you cover the area around Leeds?

Yes. As well as Leeds itself we cover nearby towns including Morley, Pudsey and Lofthouse.

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.

Which fire safety law applies in Leeds?

Leeds 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.
