Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Wellington

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

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 Wellington.

Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Wellington: questions

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Wellington?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Wellington?

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

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.
