FRA Carpenter

Job Description:

We are looking for an experienced FRA Carpenter to lead a high-volume fire safety project. This is a specialist role requiring precision and a deep understanding of fire safety compliance—generic internal door-hanging experience will not be sufficient for this position.

• PFP/FRA Background: A solid background in Passive Fire Protection (PFP) and Fire Risk Actions (FRA).
• Technical Skill: Ability to work to strict manufacturer data sheets and British Standards (e.g., maintaining 2-4mm perimeter gaps and correct intumescent seal placement).
• Tools & Transport: You must have your own car/van and full set of tools. 

Key Responsibilities

• Full installation of  new composite fire door sets.
• Ensuring all installations meet FD30/FD60 standards and are fully compliant for audit.
• Fitting and adjusting fire-rated ironmongery, closers, and intumescent strips.

Qualifications (Preferred)

• CSCS Card (Blue Skilled Worker preferred).
• NVQ Level 2 or 3 in Carpentry & Joinery.
• Asbestos Awareness certification.
