WHY PASSIVE FIRE PROTECTION MATTERS
The Risk of Rapid Fire Spread – Don’t Leave Gaps Unsealed
Poor or missing fire stopping can cause smoke and fire to spread rapidly, increasing risk to life and breaching your legal obligations.
Increased risk to occupants and responders.
Fails Regulation 38 and fire strategy requirements.
Costly remedial works and delay.
Fails Building Safety Act requirements.
Missed evacuation windows in high-risk buildings (HRBs).
Increased liability for duty holders and responsible persons.

FAQ
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Fire Stopping, and why is it important?
Fire stopping seals gaps and service penetrations to stop fire, smoke, and gas from spreading between compartments. This preserves escape routes and supports the building’s fire strategy.
It’s a legal requirement under the Fire Safety Act and helps meet Building Safety Act and Regulation 38 obligations. It also supports the Golden Thread, ensuring fire protection is properly documented and traceable.
How often should Fire Stopping be inspected?
Fire stopping should be inspected at least once a year, or after any building works that may affect compartmentation—such as new service installations or refurbishments.
For Higher-Risk Buildings (HRBs) or complex sites, more frequent checks may be needed. Regular inspections ensure systems remain effective and compliant with safety regulations.
What kind of buildings require Fire Stopping services?
Fire stopping is essential in any building with fire-rated walls or floors. This includes:
-
Offices and commercial premises
-
Hospitals and care settings
-
Schools and public buildings
-
Flats and multi-storey residential buildings
It’s mandatory under the Fire Safety Act and enforced by the Building Safety Regulator. Duty holders are responsible for ensuring all fire stopping is installed correctly, maintained, and fully documented.
