Danny has spent years installing and maintaining fire doors across residential, commercial and public sector buildings. Compliance has always been at the forefront of every installation, not as a box ticking exercise, but as a genuine responsibility. That hands-on experience is what drives FireWedge. He knows exactly what installers need on site, and built the products around it.
Every fire door installation uses some form of packing wedge, yet for years it was the one component with no dedicated manufacturer or supply chain, no independent density verification and no reliable documentation trail. Inconsistent stock, unpredictable lead times and no way to evidence what was actually installed.
FireWedge was built to close that gap. The UK's first and only dedicated hardwood packing wedge manufactured specifically for the fire door industry — every batch independently density tested by an accredited testing facility, a batch-specific Certificate of Conformity issued with every order and a supply chain built exclusively around fire door installation.
The values that define military service — Integrity, precision, accountability — define how FireWedge operates. Every batch tested, every pack certified. Because standards aren't optional.
Using timber comes with a responsibility — and FireWedge takes that seriously.
Every order placed at firewedgesdirect.co.uk plants one tree, verified and tracked through our partnership with Treeapp — a certified B Corp running planting programmes across 20+ countries. Native species. Satellite verified. Permanently monitored.
This isn't a marketing exercise. It's a genuine commitment built into how the business operates from day one — because a company that depends on timber should give something back to the forests that make it possible.
