Industry Certified Fire Door Installation
Fire doors are designed to slow the spread of fire and smoke, but their effectiveness depends entirely on correct installation. Exterior Plas follows the BM TRADA Q-Mark Fire Door Installation Scheme, ensuring every installation is completed according to manufacturer guidelines and recognised industry standards. This certification provides reassurance that each fire door will perform as intended in the event of a fire.

Fire Door Maintenance & Compliance
There is a legal requirement for manufacturers of fire doors to demonstrate the ability of their products to resist the passage and spread of fire. However, if they are not properly installed, their fire resistance capabilities can be seriously compromised.
Fire Door Maintenance & Compliance
Ongoing maintenance is essential to preserve the integrity and operational performance of fire doors throughout their lifecycle. Exterior Plas follows BM TRADA-certified maintenance procedures to ensure every fire door continues to meet required safety standards while remaining fully operational in high-traffic environments.

Certified Fire Stopping Solutions
Where electrical, gas, water, and communication services pass through fire-resistant walls or floors, those penetrations must be properly sealed to maintain compartmentation within the building. Exterior Plas provides certified fire stopping installations designed to help buildings remain compliant with modern fire safety regulations and maintain critical passive fire protection systems.
