Introduction To FrameFit
FrameFit is the ultimate gap remediation system for fire doors.
In the UK alone there is estimated to be 30 million non-compliant fire doors. 80% of these doors fail due to them having
excessive gaps between the door and frame. The gaps are predominately found on lock side (closing side) However, a
large number also have issues on the head and bottom of the door. FrameFit is a fully tested solution addressing a huge
non-compliance issue. FrameFit will not only be a much more cost-effective but will also save many thousands of fire
doors from being discarded annually.
What is Framefit?
The system comprises of preformed fillets of intumescent and charring material with a decorative finish used in
conjunction with a fire rated spacer fillet. The spacers will have a range of sizes available to suit the varying gap sizes.
Regulations and Certifications
Fire door manufacturers are required to test their doors by subjecting them to a test procedure as specified in BS 476-
22:1987 or BS EN 1634-1:2014.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 reforms the law relating to fire safety in non-domestic premises. This
order drives the industry where Frame Fit is concerned.
