Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Newry

From the BT35 district outwards, we cover Newry and neighbouring towns such as Portadown and Craigavon 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. We use the same method for buildings in Newry.

Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Newry: questions

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

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

Does regulation 10 apply in Newry?

No. Newry is in Northern Ireland, where the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 apply.

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.

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.
