BM Trada Certification
SN Carpentry & Firedoors proudly holds membership with BM Trada, a renowned third-party certification and training program. BM Trada stands out as one of the most recognised and accepted certification schemes, approved for government building projects, council-owned properties, and residential premises alike.
Fire Door Services
BM TRADA, an accredited certification body by UKAS, offers independent third-party certification services for fire-related aspects, including the manufacturing, installation, and maintenance of fire doors. The certification scheme also covers fire stopping installations.
​
These schemes have a primary objective of continually elevating the standards in fire door manufacturing, installation, and maintenance. The overarching goal is to ensure that fire doors maintain their fire-resistant properties throughout their operational lifespan.
​
Manufacturers of fire doors are legally obligated to demonstrate their products' ability to withstand and contain fires. However, the effectiveness of fire doors can be significantly compromised if they are not correctly installed. BM TRADA's Q-Mark Fire Door Installation scheme is meticulously crafted to provide peace of mind to specifiers, contractors, and end-users. It assures them that their chosen fire door has been expertly installed and will perform as intended.
Fire Protection Services
In cases where essential services like water, gas, electricity, or communications penetrate fire-resistant compartments within a building, it becomes imperative to seal these openings with suitable fire stopping solutions. Both the Building Regulations and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order (RRFSO) mandate that individuals responsible for fire-stopping product installations must possess the necessary competence. Third-party certification is widely accepted as the benchmark for demonstrating this competence.
