Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Nuneaton
We provide fire door seal replacements for buildings in Nuneaton and the CV11 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 Nuneaton: questions
Which fire safety law applies in Nuneaton?
Nuneaton 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.
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.
Do you cover the area around Nuneaton?
Yes. As well as Nuneaton itself we cover nearby towns including Bedworth, Hinckley and Coventry.
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.
