Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Sunbury-on-Thames

We provide fire door seal replacements for buildings in Sunbury-on-Thames and the TW16 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

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.

Sunbury-on-Thames FAQs

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.

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Sunbury-on-Thames?

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Sunbury-on-Thames?

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