Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Canary Wharf

Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Canary Wharf, 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. We use the same method for buildings in Canary Wharf.

Questions from Canary Wharf clients

Do you work in occupied buildings in Canary Wharf?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Canary Wharf can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.

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.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Canary Wharf?

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