Online builders’ merchant Building Superstore is helping its customers get to grips with the latest fire safety requirements.
The builders’ merchant is offering an extensive range of fire-rated and non-combustible building materials including insulation boards, cavity barriers and sealants plus a large choice of fire doors and hardware.
With fire-rated insulation and cavity barriers available from leading manufactures such as Rockwool, SuperFOIL and ARC Building Solutions, Building Superstore has seen an increase in orders from customers working in the commercial sector and on high-rise buildings over 18m that are subject to the requirements of the Building Safety Act. As well as providing guidance on product selection and quantities needed, the Building Superstore team is also on hand to liaise directly with the manufacturers to ensure customers have access to the latest technical information.
Building Superstore’s ongoing support of customer’s working on retrofit and refurbishment projects has also seen an uptake in orders for fire-rated internal doors, frames and hardware which can offer between 30 and 60 minutes of protection from smoke, heat and flames. The Building Superstore team can also source bespoke solutions on request to give upwards of 90 to 120 minutes of fire resistance.
The extensive range includes a choice of various designs from leading manufacturers such as Deana and JB Kind, as well as own brand styles from Door Superstore – Building Superstore’s partner site. These competitively priced doors are ideal for projects with a tighter budget and timeframe, and are available for quick delivery to site. For extra peace of mind, Door Superstore also stocks a wide range of complementary fire-rated ironmongery and hardware, including fire-rated door closers and high-performance intumescent strips which swell in the event of a fire to seal gaps around door frames, deadlocks and hinges.
