Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Wrexham
From the LL13 district outwards, we cover Wrexham and neighbouring towns such as Rhosllannerchrugog and Buckley for fire door seal replacements.
Intumescent seals are strips set into the edge of a fire door or its frame that expand when heated to close the gap around the door. Smoke seals, usually brush or fin seals, block cold smoke before the intumescent reacts. Both are part of the door's tested performance.

Common questions in Wrexham
Does regulation 10 apply in Wrexham?
No. Wrexham is in Wales and regulation 10 is English law. The Fire Safety Order 2005 still requires fire doors to be maintained, and many Welsh landlords follow the same quarterly and annual routine as good practice.
What is the difference between an intumescent strip and a smoke seal?
An intumescent strip expands in heat to seal the gap during a fire. A smoke seal, often a brush or blade, blocks cold smoke at lower temperatures. Smoke control doors, marked with an S such as FD30S, need both.
Can you price remedial work in Wrexham from another company's report?
Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Wrexham, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.
Will new seals fix a door with big gaps?
No. Seals only work within the gap they were tested with. Gaps outside tolerance need the door adjusting first.
