Fire protection services

Passive fire protection forms part of the building itself. Providing constant fire resistance, these measures are built into the property’s structure and contain fire and smoke, while protecting escape routes and limiting the spread of fire between different areas. This includes measures such as fire doors, compartmentation, firestopping, and fire dampers, all of which must be relied upon and fit for purpose in the event of an emergency.

Our specialists have a decades-honed understanding of how these measures work together and exactly what affects their performance, helping to maintain their effectiveness and support regulatory compliance over the lifespan of a building. Whether we are assessing existing protection and identifying gaps or carrying out remedial work and installing new measures, Checkmate Fire exists to provide the practical expertise needed to keep passive fire protection doing its job and, even more importantly, leave you confident your building has the protection it needs.
