Commercial fire doors: our service in Kenilworth
From the CV8 postcode district outwards, we take on commercial fire doors across Kenilworth for homes, blocks and workplaces.
Fire doors in Kenilworth protect escape routes in family homes after loft conversions, care homes and schools alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
Offices, shops and hotels in Kenilworth can have fire doors fitted out of hours so trading is not interrupted. For commercial buildings in Kenilworth, we coordinate access control and alarm interfaces before the doors arrive.
Doors that look the part and still perform
Commercial interiors often need veneered, laminated or painted finishes, glazing, push plates, kick plates and signage. All of this is possible on a fire door, provided every element is covered by the doorset's certification. We specify the finish and hardware at the outset so nothing has to be improvised on site.
Each installation includes:
- Glazed and solid options to certification
- Doorsets with veneer, laminate or paint finishes
- Access control and electric locking interfaces
- Hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm
What the rules say for Kenilworth
England's framework applies in Kenilworth. 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 Kenilworth, 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.

Do I need to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to give us access to the doors. For blocks and commercial buildings, a caretaker or site contact is fine; for HMOs and homes, we agree a time with you or your tenants.
Who is responsible for fire doors in a commercial building?
The responsible person under the fire safety law for that nation, usually the employer, owner or occupier. Leases often share duties between landlord and tenant.
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.
