FIRE RATED CAVITY CLOSERS
Fire rated cavity closers are designed to seal cavities around window and door openings while also providing fire resistance within the wall construction. In the event of a fire, they help prevent flames from spreading through concealed cavities, supporting the fire performance of the building envelope. Fire rated cavity closers also maintain insulation continuity, helping projects meet both fire safety and thermal performance requirements.
FRAME FORMERS
Frame formers are temporary supports used during construction to create accurate openings for windows and doors within masonry or cavity wall systems. Installed before the window or door frame is fitted, they help maintain the correct dimensions and alignment of the opening while brickwork progresses. Frame formers also protect the opening from damage and debris during construction, helping to ensure a clean, precise installation when the final frames are installed.
DPCs & FIRESOCKS
Damp proof courses are essential components used within masonry construction to prevent moisture rising through the structure. Installed at key points in the wall, such as above openings or at the base of walls, DPCs act as a barrier that stops water from travelling through the building fabric. By controlling moisture movement, they help protect internal finishes, maintain structural integrity, and contribute to the long-term durability of the building envelope.
Fire socks are protective sleeves designed to encase and support fire stopping products within cavity barriers or around service penetrations. They help contain and position fire-resistant materials so they can expand effectively in the event of a fire, sealing gaps and restricting the spread of flames and smoke through concealed cavities. Fire socks support consistent installation on site and help maintain the fire performance of the overall wall system.
