Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Gosport

Looking for a fire door seal replacement in Gosport? We inspect, repair and replace fire doors across Gosport and surrounding parts of Hampshire, with a door-by-door report and every remedial item priced separately.

In short: 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 Gosport: questions

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 Gosport from another company's report?

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

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Gosport?

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

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.
