Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Brent, Greater London: every door logged, photographed and graded, with a clear price for anything that needs putting right.
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.
