Intumescent strip and smoke seal fitting in Uxbridge

Intumescent strips and smoke seals in Uxbridge, done to the evidence

Our intumescent strips and smoke seals service covers Uxbridge and the wider Greater London area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.

Fire doors in Uxbridge protect escape routes in hotels, purpose-built blocks of flats and clinics alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.

Seal replacement in Uxbridge can be combined with any other remedials on the same inspection report. We check that each door in your Uxbridge building closes and latches against its new seals before signing it off.

Pads, linings and hidden protection

Fire doors also rely on intumescent material you cannot see: pads behind hinges, linings around lock bodies and glazing seals. Where these are missing or damaged, we fit the correct items as part of the work.

What you get:

• Intumescent pads to hinges and locks
• Intumescent strips in frame or leaf edge
• Identification of the specified seals
• Check of gaps and closing after fitting

The regulations behind fire doors in Uxbridge

England's framework applies in Uxbridge. Approved Document B guides the fire performance of new and replacement doors under the Building Regulations 2010. Day-to-day duties sit with the responsible person under the Fire Safety Order 2005, and for multi-occupied residential buildings, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties such as giving residents information about fire doors. Enforcement of fire safety law in Uxbridge sits with the London Fire Brigade.

For blocks over 11 metres in Uxbridge, those regulations require communal fire door checks at least every three months and best-endeavours flat entrance door checks each year. In higher-risk buildings, building work is overseen by the Building Safety Regulator, so we check whether approval is needed before starting.
