  • Smoke seals and closers on doors
  • Stair enclosure screens

Key checks for Denton projects

Smoke control

Doors on escape routes usually need smoke seals as well as fire resistance, so the smoke-control classification matters too.

Stair enclosures

Glazing into a protected stair needs particular care; the rules depend on whether the stair is part of a protected shaft and how the building is used.

Inspection regimes

In England, blocks of flats over 11 metres need regular checks of communal fire doors, including glazed ones.

Honest about unknowns

Work around occupied buildings

We can phase work in Denton around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
