NOTE: Circumstances will vary from building to building and doorset to doorset. It is important therefore to look at each case individually when assessing the potential for upgrading. If upgrading with an intumescent coating is acceptable to the regulating authorities, assess whether each existing door and frame under consideration is suitable. This will depend not only on the design and materials used but also on all relevant aspects of the construction of the doorset.
When considering the suitability of each individual door ensure that:-
After removing the existing coating, the doorleaf is in good condition with no gaps, holes or loose joints.
All panels are sound.
The door fits correctly In the frame.
