Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Bentley

We provide fire door seal replacements for buildings in Bentley and the DN5 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

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 Bentley: questions

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.

Can you price remedial work in Bentley from another company's report?

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

Which fire safety law applies in Bentley?

Bentley is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential 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.
