This high-performance seal is designed to stop smoke from passing under a fire door as well as providing an effective barrier against fire, the outside climate, noise, light and insects.
A drop down seal is activated once the door is closed. This means the door threshold remains clear without the need for a high fixed threshold. It’s the ideal seal to meet document part E and part M of UK building regulations where disability, access and energy conservation is concerned.
The Applique features a satin anodised aluminium finish with galvanised steel flat springs and reinforced actuators and is endurance-tested to 200,000 cycles with a 14mm maximum drop.
The seals are acoustically tested in accordance with BS EN ISO 140-3:1995 and achieved a rating of up to 29dB Rw, fire tested to BS476: Part 20/22: 1987 to 60 minutes and smoke tested to BS EN 1634-3:2004.
This easy-to-fit seal is a versatile solution that comes with pre-fitted screws for a quick and cost-effective installation and can be shortened or cut down if required by 150mm.

The Fire Door Drop seals will accomodate a slight slope in the floor with a 2-4mm toloerance form lock side to hinge side.
However, they will not accomodate any dips in the middle of the floor and you may need to look at a threshold plate to address this.
Surface Mounted Drop seals are not tested with use with a kickplate.
This is a 3mm Allen Key and is used to adjust the drop seal when fitting. These are not included in the pack.
