FAQs

No, FAS Fire Door Intumescent Acrylic Sealant does not require specialist packers or fixings. The sealant has been specifically tested as part of a fire door sealing system in conjunction with FAS Fire Door Foam™, plastic packers and standard screw fixings. Timber packers and MDF packers may also be used where required. Always ensure installation is carried out in accordance with the relevant fire test evidence, certification and installation guidance to maintain the fire and smoke performance of the door assembly.

Yes, architraves can be installed over FAS Fire Door Intumescent Acrylic Sealant where required. However, architraves are optional, as the sealant has been successfully fire tested both with and without architraves as part of a tested fire door sealing system. This provides flexibility when sealing perimeter gaps around fire door frames whilst maintaining the tested fire performance of the installation. Always follow the relevant installation guidance, certification and fire test evidence for the specific fire door assembly.
