? Best practice for a FD  with flush bolts that has seals like this. Do they need to be cut around I know their not continuous but do they need to be.

The intumescent seals / smoke seals should not be fitted to the same edge as the flush bolt because the interruption of seals would be too great. Fit them instead to the active leaf so that when the doors are closed the seal opposes the bolts.

Ok so best practice would be to hard wood inset and route leaf for seals ? Would this make the door compliant surveys before me said nothing about this and also a hole from drilling of the lock

Eg.  Active leaf on the right, with seals fitted. Slave leaf on the left with no seals. See below:

Consult the product data sheet for the door leaf for specific requirements, if you can.
