Intumescent strip and smoke seal fitting in Surrey

Getting intumescent strips and smoke seals right in Surrey

Whether your building is in Woking, Guildford or a smaller place in Surrey, we can provide intumescent strips and smoke seals with the same evidence-led approach.

We check that each door in your Surrey building closes and latches against its new seals before signing it off. Painted and missing seals are among the most common fire door defects nationally; in Surrey we replace them with the type and size the certification specifies.

Surrey has a mix of buildings, from purpose-built blocks to converted houses and commercial premises. We tailor the programme to the building, not the other way round.

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.

Rules and responsibilities in Surrey

In Surrey, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet.

Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Surrey building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.
