Compartmentation Works

Fire Compartmentation

At A S Ramsay, we provide expert fire compartmentation services to divide buildings into fire-resistant compartments that limit the spread of fire and smoke. Using solutions like fire doors and cavity barriers, we help protect escape routes, safeguard occupants, and reduce damage by containing fires to their point of origin.

Fire compartmentation involves creating and maintaining fire-resistant walls, floors, and doors that prevent fire and smoke from spreading between rooms, floors, or adjoining spaces.  Any openings or penetrations in these barriers, such as doors, windows, ductwork, or service pipes, are carefully sealed and maintained to ensure the fire resistance of the compartment is preserved.

This approach is vital for saving lives by providing occupants more time to evacuate safely and for protecting valuable property by restricting fire damage. It is especially important in protecting escape routes and critical areas such as server rooms or healthcare facilities where partial evacuation may be necessary.

If a building’s fire compartmentation has been compromised, whether through maintenance or damage, we offer reliable fire stopping solutions including fire batts, collars, and pillows to reinstate fire resistance and maintain safety standards. All fire stopping work is carried out by our experienced, competent team to ensure compliance and long-term protection.
