Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in St Austell

We provide fire door seal replacements for buildings in St Austell and the PL25 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

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.

Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in St Austell: questions

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in St Austell?

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

Can I just stick new seals over the old ones?

No. Seals should be fitted into the groove after the old seal is removed, in the size and type the door was tested with.

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

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