Commercial fire doors for City of Westminster buildings
We provide commercial fire doors in City of Westminster (SW1E and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.
Buildings in and around City of Westminster range from schools to hotels and student accommodation. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.
Offices, shops and hotels in City of Westminster can have fire doors fitted out of hours so trading is not interrupted. Each commercial door we fit in City of Westminster 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.
Each installation includes:
- Access control and electric locking interfaces
- Hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm
- Glazed and solid options to certification
- Out-of-hours and phased working

Day-to-day duties sit with the responsible person under the Fire Safety Order 2005, and for multi-occupied residential buildings, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties such as giving residents information about fire doors.

In higher-risk buildings, building work is overseen by the Building Safety Regulator, so we check whether approval is needed before starting.
