Commercial fire doors: our service in Dundee
We provide commercial fire doors in Dundee (DD1 and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.
Fire doors in Dundee protect escape routes in HMOs, industrial units and purpose-built flats alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
Offices, shops and hotels in Dundee can have fire doors fitted out of hours so trading is not interrupted. Each commercial door we fit in Dundee gets a record your fire risk assessor can use straight away.
Access control and hold-opens
Modern offices and hotels often combine fire doors with access control, electric locks and hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm. Electric locking on an escape route has to release safely, and any holes, cables and devices in the door must be covered by the evidence. We coordinate with your security and fire alarm contractors on the interfaces.
Each installation includes:
- Access control and electric locking interfaces
- Hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm
- Doorsets with veneer, laminate or paint finishes
- Glazed and solid options to certification
Fire door law for Dundee properties
In Dundee, fire doors are specified against Scotland's Technical Handbooks (Section 2: Fire) under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, rather than Approved Document B. Duties in non-domestic premises come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006.
England's regulation 10 does not apply in Scotland. We follow the building's fire risk assessment and, where building work needs a warrant, the local authority's requirements.
Which buildings in Dundee need commercial fire doors?
Landlords, managing agents, facilities teams and homeowners in Dundee can all commission commercial fire doors from us. The usual settings are gyms and leisure sites and offices, though single doors for restaurants are just as welcome.

Questions from Dundee
Do you cover DD1 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Dundee including DD1, and nearby towns such as Arbroath and Perth. The survey and written quote are free.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Dundee building?
Yes. Send it over and we can often price straight from it, then confirm on site. We report back against the same door references so you can close actions off.
Can fire doors have access control?
Yes, if the electric locks, readers and cabling are covered by the door's certification and the locking releases safely for escape. We coordinate with your security contractor.
Can you install fire doors outside business hours?
Yes. We regularly plan work for evenings, weekends or quiet periods so that offices, shops and hotels can keep running.
