Our commercial fire doors service in Morecambe is simple: a survey, a fixed quote, certified products and an installation finished to the manufacturer's evidence.
Fire doors in Morecambe protect escape routes in HMOs, schools and houses with integral garages alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
Offices, shops and hotels in Morecambe can have fire doors fitted out of hours so trading is not interrupted. Each commercial door we fit in Morecambe 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:
- Glazed and solid options to certification
- Hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm
- Per-door evidence for your fire risk assessment
- Out-of-hours and phased working
Fire door law for Morecambe properties
England's framework applies in Morecambe. Approved Document B guides the fire performance of new and replacement doors under the Building Regulations 2010. 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.
