Commercial fire doors for Wokingham buildings
Our commercial fire doors service covers Wokingham and the wider Berkshire area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.
Wokingham has a broad mix of buildings, including schools, small offices and family homes after loft conversions, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
Offices, shops and hotels in Wokingham can have fire doors fitted out of hours so trading is not interrupted. Each commercial door we fit in Wokingham gets a record your fire risk assessor can use straight away.
Doors that look the part and still perform
Commercial interiors often need veneered, laminated or painted finishes, glazing, push plates, kick plates and signage. All of this is possible on a fire door, provided every element is covered by the doorset's certification. We specify the finish and hardware at the outset so nothing has to be improvised on site.
As standard, the work covers:
- Glazed and solid options to certification
- Hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm
- Out-of-hours and phased working
- Doorsets with veneer, laminate or paint finishes
Which fire door rules apply in Wokingham?
Fire doors in Wokingham fall under English rules. New and replacement doors are covered by the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. In workplaces and the common parts of blocks, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, as clarified by the Fire Safety Act 2021, puts the duty on the responsible person to keep fire doors suitable and maintained.
For residential buildings in Wokingham above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 adds checks: communal fire doors at least every three months and best-endeavours checks of flat entrance doors at least every twelve months. Higher-risk buildings of at least 18 metres or seven storeys also come under the Building Safety Act 2022, where works may need approval from the Building Safety Regulator.
