Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this seal prevent smoke from passing through?

No, this is a fire-only seal. It does not include a brush pile for cold smoke control.

Can I paint over these fire seals?

It is not recommended to paint over the intumescent material, as it may hinder its expansion during a fire.

What standards do these strips meet?

They are tested to BS 476 Part 22 and BS EN 1634-1 fire safety standards.

How many strips come in a pack?

Each pack includes five 1050mm long strips.

Where should these be installed?

They should be installed within a routed groove on the fire door or the corresponding door frame.

Troubleshooting

Adhesive failing to stick to the frame

Ensure the surface is completely degreased and dry; use a primer if the frame surface is porous.

Strip is too long for the door frame

Trim the strip using a sharp heavy-duty cutting blade, ensuring a clean square cut.

Strip appears damaged or peeling

Remove the damaged section and replace it with a new strip to ensure the fire seal remains continuous.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets rigorous fire safety standards
  • Strong self-adhesive backing for easy installation
  • No bulky brush pile for a cleaner aesthetic look
  • Ideal for commercial and residential code compliance

Cons

  • Provides no protection against cold smoke
  • Requires a routed groove in the door or frame for best results
  • Not suitable for applications requiring acoustic sealing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, ensure the door frame is clean, dry, and free of dust or oils to allow the adhesive to bond properly. The strips are designed to fit into a pre-routed channel. Measure the door height carefully before trimming the 1050mm strips to size using a sharp utility knife. Once installed, avoid painting over the intumescent material, as this can impede the expansion process during a fire. Regular inspections should be conducted to ensure the strips have not peeled or become damaged, maintaining the integrity of your fire safety system.
