View our range of Intumescent Strips & Pads, an essential addition for improving the fire safety and protection of your doors. Designed to provide a reliable barrier in the event of a fire, these innovative components expand when exposed to extreme heat, effectively sealing the gap between the door and the door frame. This crucial feature helps to prevent the spread of smoke, flames, and toxic gases, giving occupants valuable extra time to evacuate safely and protecting property from further damage.
When temperatures rise during a fire, the intumescent material within these strips or pads reacts by expanding many times its original size. This expansion fills any gaps around the door leaf or frame, creating a tight, smoke-resistant seal. This process significantly slows down the spread of fire through door assemblies, helping to contain it within a single compartment for as long as possible.
Our Intumescent Strips & Pads are specifically designed for use with FD30 and FD60 fire-rated doors, ensuring compliance with UK fire safety regulations. They can be easily fitted along the edges of the door or within the frame, providing discreet yet highly effective fire protection without compromising the door’s appearance or performance.
We offer a wide selection of intumescent products to suit various applications:
Intumescent Strips: Installed around the perimeter of the door to form a continuous fire and smoke seal.
Intumescent Hinge Pads: Placed behind hinges to maintain door integrity and prevent weak points during high temperatures.
Combined Fire and Smoke Seals: Include both intumescent material and brush or blade smoke seals for dual protection.
These products are suitable for both commercial and residential environments, including offices, apartment blocks, schools, and public buildings where enhanced fire protection is required.

They are manufactured from high-quality materials designed to deliver long-lasting protection and durability. Available in a range of sizes, colours, and configurations, our strips and pads can be matched seamlessly with various fire door designs, ensuring both safety and aesthetic appeal.
