Why Does Choosing the Right Fire Door Matter?

A fire door is more than just a door. It's a critical part of a building's passive fire protection system, designed to protect lives, limit damage and provide valuable time in the event of a fire.

But not all fire doors are the same, and choosing the correct specification is essential.

Here's why getting it right matters:

• Fire Resistance: Fire doors are designed and tested to resist the spread of fire for a specified period, such as 30, 60 or 120 minutes, depending on the building's requirements.

• Smoke Protection: Where smoke control is required, correctly specified fire doors with appropriate seals help restrict the movement of smoke, one of the biggest dangers during a fire.

• Safe Evacuation: Fire doors help protect escape routes, providing occupants with valuable time to evacuate safely.

• Building Compliance: Selecting the correct fire door helps ensure your building meets its applicable fire safety requirements.

• Correct Installation: Even a certified fire door can fail to perform as intended if the frame, seals, ironmongery or installation are incorrect.

At MES Construction, our fire safety division understands the importance of getting every detail right. From fire door inspections and maintenance to installation and remedial works, we help businesses and property owners maintain effective passive fire protection.

Because when it comes to fire safety, the right door, correctly installed and maintained, can make all the difference.

FROM OLD TO NEW | ST THOMAS’ STREET, SUNDERLAND

The transformation of the former John’s Hairdressing Services is well underway, and we're making great progress.

The initial strip-out stage is now almost complete, clearing the way for the next phase of this exciting refurbishment.

Once a familiar hairdressing salon in the heart of Sunderland, this building is being given a new lease of life, with MES Construction transforming the property into new retail spaces and residential apartments.

It's a project that combines the history of a well-known city-centre building with an exciting vision for its future.

Take a look at the progress so far, and keep following us as we bring this transformation to life.

Preserving the past. Building for the future.

WORK UNDERWAY AT SOUTH TYNESIDE DISTRICT HOSPITAL

Our team is currently on site at South Tyneside District Hospital, carrying out roof clearance and preparation works ahead of the application of a new liquid rubber roofing system.

Working within a live hospital environment requires careful planning, coordination and consideration to ensure essential services can continue operating with minimal disruption.

At MES Construction, we understand the importance of delivering works safely and efficiently, particularly in environments where day-to-day operations cannot simply stop.

This project is another example of our experience working within operational facilities, delivering essential building improvements while keeping disruption to a minimum.

Because sometimes, the most important part of a project is ensuring everything around it can carry on as normal.

EVER WONDERED HOW A CONCEPT COMES TO LIFE?

Every great construction project starts with a vision, but how do you turn an idea on paper into something you can actually see?

For our Cleadon project, we've been working alongside Neil from North East Architectural Services to bring the architectural drawings to life through detailed 3D visualisation.

This allows us to explore the design, understand how the different elements come together and give a clearer picture of the finished property before construction begins.

From initial concept to final construction, collaboration is key to delivering a successful project.

Take a look at the video to see the vision for our Cleadon project come to life.

RESTORING, REBUILDING, MOVING FORWARD.

Work is now underway on our latest restoration project, following extensive damage to a building caused by a vehicle collision.

Working alongside Aspray Tyne & Wear, the MES Construction team has begun the process of restoring the property, addressing the damage and carrying out the necessary building works to bring it back to its former condition.

Projects like this require careful planning, skilled workmanship and attention to detail to ensure the building is restored safely and to a high standard.

We're pleased to be working collaboratively with Aspray Tyne & Wear on this project and look forward to sharing updates as the restoration progresses.
