Thermoguard Timbercoat Door Upgrade Kit is an intumescent paint system to upgrade doors to 30 minutes fire resistance & 30 minutes fire doors to 60 minutes.
Available as a convenient pack containing the required 5kg basecoat of Thermoguard Timbercoat & a 2.5 litre of Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat to protect 2 doors in white or an assortment of Ral colour standards in eggshell or a gloss finish.
Thermoguard Timbercoat is capable of upgrading the following doors :
Solid, joint free doors with compressed core and a reasonable thickness (6mm+), veneer faces bonded to either side of the core. These can be flush doors or pressed to create a moulded look.
Seasoned, old or sturdy doors with 35mm+ thick frames and solid panels 10mm+ thick.
Certain other doors that are not prone to premature collapse.
Please Note: Well seasoned or old, sturdy doors with panels 8mm thick can be upgraded if additional “sacrificial” ply panels 6mm thick are fitted in the panel recesses & held in place by the door’s beading.
If your doors are in a category which could be upgraded submit your assessment to your Authority, for approval prior to purchase. A Fire Certificate for Authority approved projects are available following completion & proof of purchase.
Please note: Remember, intumescent paint is just one element of protection and DOES NOT create a ‘fire door’. Intumescent materials & hardware must be used to ensure your doors meet the required standards of your authority.
