Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Dunfermline

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

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 Dunfermline.
