OPEN TO PREVENT FIRE
Fire Door
Inspection
Maintenance
and Replacement
Fire doors are a crucial part of any
public, commercial or
multiple-occupancy buildings
protection strategy. They resist fire
and smoke, protect escape routes
and effectively save lives, but only
if they work properly. Legislation
dictates that the building owner is
responsible, and that Fire Doors
should be checked every 6 months
and moreover, you need to show
evidence of this.
Our certified Fire Door Inspection
& Maintenance service offer full
in-depth reporting, maintenance,
repair and replacement services to
ensure that your building is safe
from potential fire hazards.
Fire Protection
for Ceilings and Walls
in Existing/Heritage
Buildings
Fitzpatrick Insulation & Passive
Fire Protection can provide a
Fire-resistant coating for
upgrading plasterboard and
lath-and-plaster ceilings to
one-hour protection.
This coating system offers an
excellent solution to
refurbishment projects where
ceilings and walls cannot be
replaced with new plasterboard
products, allowing the original
features to remain in Graded
historical buildings.
Fire protection for
timber ceilings, walls
doors and floors
Fitzpatrick Insulation & Passive Fire
Protection have a wide variety of
solutions for fire protection to
timber which is especially effective
in refurbishment projects, often
allowing existing architectural
features to remain in place.
Solutions provided include
achieving Class 0 & 1 spread of
flame to panelled timber as well as
achieving 30- & 60-minutes fire
resistance to load bearing
floorboards and joists.
Fire Protection
for Electric Cables
Fitzpatrick Insulation & Passive Fire
Protection provide intumescent
fire-retardant coatings designed for
cables with plastic casing to prolong
the functions of the cables and
inhibits PVC fumes in the event of a
fire. When exposed to fire or heat,
the product develops a microporous
intumescent foam layer which

protects the cable with its low caloric
conductivity. Tested to BS476 Part 22
(1987), achieving an integrity of 4
hours. The cables continued to carry
current for 97 minutes.
Fire Protection
for Structural Steel
It can take just a few minutes for
unprotected steelwork in a building
to attain temperatures of around
550ºC in a fire. At this temperature,
steelwork loses its load bearing
capacity by up to 50% and the
structure is likely to collapse, giving
little time for people to evacuate and
even less time for the fire service to
bring the fire under control.
Fitzpatrick Insulation & Passive Fire
Protection protect your steel
structure by applying intumescent
coatings providing up to 2 hours fire
resistance. Intumescent coating
reacts in a fire situation by expanding
and forming an insulating char layer
up to 50 times the paints original
thickness.
Compliance / Accreditation
We recognise the importance of
compliance with all relevant
legislation and industry standards and
we strive to promote excellence in the
design and installation of third party
accredited passive fire protection
systems through technical expertise
and upskilling of our operatives which
ensure our products are properly
applied to become certified fire
stopping systems. Together with the
support and training provided by our
international training providers IFC
and IFE we can provide certified
products and systems that meet the
statutory obligations of property

area of origin

escape time for occupants
• Protect the building’s critical structural
members
• Protect your building’s assets and business
continuity
Fire Stopping / Penetration
Sealing systems
Fire Stopping is a passive fire
protection method designed to
diminish the opportunity for fire to
spread through unprotected
openings in fire rated walls and
floors. Fire stopping systems are
designed and applied by Fitzpatrick
Insulation & Passive Fire Protection
to restore the continuous
fire-resistance of building
assemblies, impeding the spread of
fire by filling the openings in them
with fire-resistant materials in areas
such as:
• Multi-service openings
through walls and floors
• Blank service openings
through walls and floors
• Combustible pipes (plastics)
• Cavity barriers
• Construction joints
• Any imperfection of fit to a
fire-rated building element
Fire & Smoke Barriers
Fire & Smoke Barriers prevent the
spread of fire through large
building voids and also provide
compartmentation between
different areas within a building.
Fire & Smoke Barriers ensure no
fire or smoke can spread from
one compartment to the next
and ensures that fire
compartment walls are continued
above the ceiling and into the
roof void.
Fitzpatrick Insulation & Passive
Fire Protection install and
maintain both lightweight
flexible fire curtains and insulated
fire barrier providing up to 120
minutes fire & smoke protection
in both occupied and unoccupied
properties.

Fire Compartmentation
Fire compartmentation is an
important element of ‘passive
fire protection’ and is achieved
by dividing the premises into
‘fire compartments’ through the
use of fire doors, floors and
walls of fire-resisting
construction, cavity barriers
within roof voids and fire
stopping to services that
penetrate through these
dividing elements.
Fitzpatrick Insulation & Passive
Fire Protection can separate
your building structure into
discrete fire zones which will:
• Prevent the spread of fire,
smoke and toxic gases
• Subdivide buildings into
manageable areas of risk
• Provide adequate means of
escape enabling time for the
occupants to safely
evacuate the premises.
Passive Fire Protection Measures
One of the main causes
of fire spread within a
building is a result of fire
and smoke travelling
through unsealed voids
in floors, walls, ceilings
and roofs.
