Intumescent & Smoke Seal Replacement in Great Malvern

Great Malvern landlords, managing agents and facilities teams can book fire door seal replacements with straightforward reports and fixed prices.

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 Great Malvern.

Common questions in Great Malvern

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.

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 Great Malvern?

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

Yes. As well as Great Malvern itself we cover nearby towns including Worcester, Tewkesbury and Droitwich.
