Commercial fire doors in Hinckley, done to the evidence
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Hinckley, we offer commercial fire doors with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
Around Hinckley, schools, HMOs and houses with integral garages all depend on fire doors that close, latch and seal. We survey each opening and tell you plainly which doors need work and which don't.
For commercial buildings in Hinckley, we coordinate access control and alarm interfaces before the doors arrive. Each commercial door we fit in Hinckley 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.
What you get:
- Hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm
- Per-door evidence for your fire risk assessment
- Access control and electric locking interfaces
- Out-of-hours and phased working

We look at every door in scope: the leaf, frame, gaps, seals, hinges, closer, glazing and how the frame is fixed. You then get a written quote that prices each door separately.
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.

Many certified doorsets come in a wide range of veneers and laminates, so matching an interior scheme is usually possible.
