Commercial fire doors: our service in Blackpool
We provide commercial fire doors in Blackpool (FY1 and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.
In and around Blackpool, fire door work covers everything from HMOs to GP surgeries. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Offices, shops and hotels in Blackpool can have fire doors fitted out of hours so trading is not interrupted. Each commercial door we fit in Blackpool 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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Per-door evidence for your fire risk assessment
- Glazed and solid options to certification
- Hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm
- Out-of-hours and phased working
The regulations behind fire doors in Blackpool
The rules that apply to fire doors in Blackpool 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 Blackpool 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.

Common questions
Do you work in Blackpool?
Yes, we take on commercial fire doors in Blackpool and the surrounding area, including Thornton-Cleveleys and Lytham St Annes. Send your postcode and a few details and we'll come back with survey dates.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Blackpool 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 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.
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.
