Explore our full range of fire stopping services available to clients across Brighton and the surrounding areas. Passive fire protection plays a vital role in making buildings safer for evacuation and in slowing the spread of fire to protect lives. Fires typically spread from object to object and then from room to room - passive fire protection materials are designed to interrupt this process.
Fire stopping can be defined as the sealing of any opening to prevent fire, smoke and heat from passing through building compartments. The spread of fire, smoke and heat can be contained by creating fire resistant compartments which segment a building both vertically and horizontally. It is essential that buildings implement fire stopping to restrict fire spread.
Fire doors are a serious contender in the main implementation of creating compartmentation in a building and they are widely brushed over. At Ark Fire Protection we provide a number of services with fire doors, whether you are looking for a new door closer or a full fire door upgrade we can offer fire door maintenance with third party accreditation.
Intumescent coatings for structural steels are a proven and effective method of protecting buildings from the risk of structural damage. All of the intumescent coatings used by Ark Fire Protection have been rigorously tested, meeting EU standards, giving confidence to our customers of advanced protection from fires which may cause threats to the structural elements of buildings.
External Fire Barrier systems are a solution to preventing the spread of fire and smoke within roof and ceiling areas, and unseen voids in buildings. Fire barrier systems are suitable for voids located up to 10.5 metres. Vertical fire barrier systems achieve both insulation and integrity periods up to 120 minutes whilst friction fire barrier slabs can provide up to 60 minutes of protection.
Ark Fire Protection offers the installation & maintenance of fire curtains made of flexible fibre specifically designed for installation in hard-to-reach areas or areas lacking structural supports that may experience movement, such as ceiling voids or lofts. Whether you require integrity or insulation, we provide a complete range of fire curtains to meet your specific needs.
Fire partitioning is a safety measure used during building construction to prevent the spread of fire. It involves creating internal walls and ceilings that contain the fire within a specific room or area of the building for a limited time. This allows occupants to find escape routes and minimises damage to the building as only a designated area is affected.
Fire remedial works encompass a range of manual services aimed at addressing passive fire protection deficiencies in a building’s framework. Our services involve the reconstitution or re-implementation of a range of passive fire protection measures that do not currently meet the required fire safety standards. Our fire risk assessment remedial works are designed to elevate your building’s fire safety standards to the appropriate level – meeting current guidelines and regulations.

In Brighton, where a mix of historic sites, modern developments, and complex buildings shape the skyline, passive fire protection isn’t optional – it’s essential. UK building regulations require all new builds and refurbishments to include passive fire measures designed to compartmentalise and control the spread of fire.
This compartmentalisation approach helps contain fire to one section of a building, giving occupants more time to evacuate safely and limiting structural damage. It’s especially vital in high-rise blocks, healthcare settings, and large facilities where evacuation may take longer.

You are responsible for fire safety if you are an employer, landlord, owner, occupier, or anyone else in control of the buidling such as a facilities manager.
