Our Services

We offer the full suite of assessment and remediation services

Fire Compartmentation

At its core, fire compartmentation is about dividing a building into sections or compartments using fire-resisting walls, floors, and doors. Each compartment acts like a barrier, containing fire and smoke within a limited area. This containment slows down the spread of fire, giving occupants more time to evacuate safely, reducing damage to the structure, and allowing more time for the emergency services.

We can provide you with assessments and remediations.

Fire Dampers

Fire dampers are devices installed in ductwork where it crosses through fire-resistance-rated walls or floors. Their sole purpose is to block the spread of flames and smoke through the ducts and compartments (walls and floors) when a fire occurs. They are designed to close when the heat reaches a specified temperature and triggers a fusible link or actuator.

We can provide you with assessments and remediations.

Fire Doors

Fire doors are crucial components in a building's passive fire protection system. These doors are designed to resist the spread of fire and smoke between compartments for a specified period, helping to contain the fire and protect escape routes. Unlike ordinary doors, fire doors are built with fire-resistant materials and are fitted with seals that expand in heat to close gaps, preventing the passage of smoke. Their proper installation and maintenance are vital for ensuring they perform effectively in an emergency.

We can provide fire door inspections, installations, and maintenance services to ensure compliance and safety.

Fire Risk Assessment

A fire risk assessment is a systematic process to identify fire hazards, evaluate the risks and implement measures to eliminate or reduce these risks to an acceptable level. It’s about proactively managing fire risks rather than reacting to incidents.
