All penetrations must have a detailed register with test reports included and a sticker at each penetration. PROFINISH Fire Protection can supply whole building penetration registers with photos, unique IDs, service installed and treatment. Our trade-qualified plaster and carpentry teams can install a range of systems for hard-to-treat penetrations which may include custom bulkheads and barriers.
The register provides an accessible record of work that has been completed, even if the penetration stickers are no longer legible or have been covered over. A register also provides necessary information for any future maintenance. Each penetration is individually tested, graded, photographed and mapped.
Our penetration testing will provide you with a central register of your fire safety compliance and any passive fire protection upgrades required.

With increasing scrutiny of fire protection compliance, many service trades and builders simply do not have the time or the technical knowledge to ensure that every penetration on their project has been protected as required.
After we perform a penetrations audit, our report will clearly outline which points pass or fail based on the Australian standard, or AS 4072.1 – specifications for the protection of openings in fire-resistant separating elements, service penetrations and control joints. For all failed points, you can supply the information back to your service trade or PROFINISH Fire Protection can continue on the project and carry out any rectification in order to gain a pass. Reports by inexperienced auditors often lack the required detail that the standard requires, or can make it hard to recognise the tested system being used.
PROFINISH Fire Protection can take the burden from you and your team having to research, assess and certify that every penetration meets the required code. We can assist you in producing the certification for your project within a reasonable time frame and present it in a way that is easy for your building surveyors and fire engineers to understand.
Problems we see with penetrations registers include:
PROFINISH Fire Protection recommends you audit your penetrations on a yearly basis. This ensures absolute code compliance in line with any legislation updates.
