How important is the linear gap around a fire doorset?

It's easy to overlook the space between a door frame and the surrounding construction.

But when it comes to fire performance, the details matter.

🔸 Why linear gaps are important
🔸 Fire testing and standards
🔸 Regulatory requirements
🔸 Specification considerations
🔸 Installation and practical application
🔸 Common issues to be aware of

Whether you're involved in design, specification, installation or construction, this session will provide practical insight into an often-overlooked part of fire doorset performance.
