If this was used to place inside a concrete gap around a pipe could I thin used fire expanding foam over the surface to use as a smoke barrier?

Sorry if I didn't understand, if we have a gap at the bottom that's sloping down slightly, would theses counter act the slop or stay even? Thank you

Yes you are correct. drop down seals are self-levelling on uneven surfaces

Would this still mean that the max Newton force of 22.5 and 30 are still the same or can the force from some closers be greater in some cases?
@firesealsdirect4 ай бұрын
This is correct, the maximum force is 22.5 and 30 in order to comply with ADM and BS8300. A hold open and free swing door closing device may be a better alternative in cases where the opening force of a door exceeds 30 newtons

In regards to the fire glass sealant, I'm guessing it would need to be fire rated and would there be any indication from an inspection that it was repaired with out any sealant as some have wood strips hiding the seal.

I alway wondered why smoke strips was not added to some door. And didn't know about the thickness needed. Thank you

Like all Carpenters, when hanging a standard door , the open edge is under cut 1mm plus out of square to maintain the even specified joint size, when the door is swung. The door has in fact what one would call ," A long corner " on the opening inner edge geometrically caused by the hinge pivot set outside the face of the door. Does this undercutting practice still apply to Fire doors ? Your advice would be much appreciated..
