Filling the Gap Around Installed Frames
KEDA Window & Door PU Foam is intended for frame-to-wall installation gaps in window and door projects. Its proposed role is gap filling within a complete installation detail, with product selection based on the frame, surrounding substrate and site conditions.

Request the current product instructions and confirmed supply specifications for your application.
Confirm the actual product's suitability for the frame material, surface finish and joint dimensions. A general-purpose foam should not be assumed suitable for a pressure-sensitive frame.
Foam filling does not replace the frame's required mechanical fixings, packers or supports. Follow the window or door manufacturer's installation detail.
Provide the specified internal air seal and external weather protection as part of the complete joint. Keep drainage paths, weep openings and operating clearances unobstructed. Foam alone is not a complete window waterproofing system.
Review the materials and application before choosing the supplied grade.
Use this overview with the instructions and safety information for the confirmed product; it does not define a fill ratio or curing schedule.
Confirm alignment, fixing and support before filling. Check that gap dimensions, substrate condition and ambient conditions are within the product's permitted range. Do not inject foam into frame cavities unless the frame manufacturer specifically permits it.
Remove dust, loose material and contamination from the bonding surfaces. Protect nearby finishes and test representative materials. Lightly dampen surfaces only where the product instructions require it; do not apply over standing water or ice.
Use the specified compatible applicator. Follow the label for can preparation and orientation. Trial the output, then fill progressively, allowing for the actual foam's expansion. Follow the supplied instructions for wider or deeper gaps rather than filling the entire space at once.
Keep the installation undisturbed for the specified curing period. Trim only when permitted, without damaging adjoining seals or frame finishes. Protect cured foam from sunlight and weather using the specified compatible finishing system. Check drainage and frame operation after completion.
The intended page focus is different: this product addresses frame-installation gaps, while KD500 covers general filling enquiries. Product names alone do not demonstrate different formulations or comparative performance. Confirm the actual product specification for the project.
No. Expansion describes a change in foam volume; curing pressure concerns the force exerted as foam cures in a constrained space. Evaluate both for pressure-sensitive frames. Neither property is claimed for this draft without supporting product information.
Do not use this product as a substitute for the mechanical fixings and supports required by the frame manufacturer and installation design.
Provide the specified compatible protection from sunlight and weather. A filled gap does not replace the joint's required weatherseal or drainage detail.
No fire-system suitability is established here. Such installations require a product and assembly specifically documented for the required application.
Send KEDA the frame material, surrounding substrate, gap dimensions and installation conditions. Include the intended applicator, destination market and estimated quantity. We will review the requirements and confirm available options before quotation.
