Fire Doors & Accessories FAQs
Can I update existing fire doors that have no seals to conform to regulations?
Yes, you can use the
surfac- mounted fire and smoke seal kits, available for single and double doors.
The single door kit can be fitted to either the door or the door frame.
The double door kit should be fitted to the doors rather than the door frame so the gap between the doors is covered.
Please note: Surface-mounted fire door seals must be used in conjunction with certified fire doors and fire door equipment. They cannot turn a standard door into a fire door.
