Commercial fire doors: our service in Lincolnshire
Whether your building is in Lincoln, Grimsby or a smaller place in Lincolnshire, we can provide commercial fire doors with the same evidence-led approach.
Each commercial door we fit in Lincolnshire gets a record your fire risk assessor can use straight away. For commercial buildings in Lincolnshire, we coordinate access control and alarm interfaces before the doors arrive.
Lincolnshire has a mix of buildings, from purpose-built blocks to converted houses and commercial premises. We tailor the programme to the building, not the other way round.
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 the rules say for Lincolnshire
England's framework applies in Lincolnshire. 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.
For blocks over 11 metres in Lincolnshire, those regulations require communal fire door checks at least every three months and best-endeavours flat entrance door checks each year. In higher-risk buildings, building work is overseen by the Building Safety Regulator, so we check whether approval is needed before starting.
