FrameFit High Expansion Intumescent & Smoke Seals should be when a fire door has a gap greater than 4mm to the frame (on the head and sides of the door) and up to 5.5mm in size.

This product is a certifiable route to make sure that the gapping is compliant with building regulations.

It saves money because it eliminates the need for a new fire door, which can cost hundreds of pounds.

It also reduces environmental impact, as the door can still be used and not disposed of.

FrameFit High Expansion Intumescent & Smoke Seals

FrameFit is a new product range of materials designed to narrow the gaps on fire doors which do not meet the gap thickness requirements set out by UK building regulations.

The FrameFit High Expansion Intumescent & Smoke Seals are designed to be used on the sides and head of the frame, if the gap between the frame and the door is greater than 4mm.

They are 1.5mm thick, so on their own can be used on gaps up to 5.5mm wide.

If your gap is larger than 5.5mm wide, you will need to use the FrameFit Low Modulus seals, which come in 1.5mm, 3mm and 5mm thicknesses, then use the FrameFit High Expansion seal on top, or use a fire and smoke rebated seal on the door.

For FD30 doors, choose the 44mm wide strips. For FD60 doors, choose the 54mm wide strips.
