Commercial fire doors for Hatfield buildings

In and around Hatfield, fire door work covers everything from small blocks of flats to care homes. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Offices, shops and hotels in Hatfield can have fire doors fitted out of hours so trading is not interrupted. Each commercial door we fit in Hatfield gets a record your fire risk assessor can use straight away.

We plan commercial installations around trading hours, out-of-hours slots and phased handovers, keeping escape routes protected throughout. You get a clear record per door that your fire risk assessor can use.
As standard, the work covers:
- Access control and electric locking interfaces
- Per-door evidence for your fire risk assessment
- Doorsets with veneer, laminate or paint finishes
- Out-of-hours and phased working
Which fire door rules apply in Hatfield?
The rules that apply to fire doors in Hatfield are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts.
Where a Hatfield block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.
