Commercial fire doors: our service in Nuneaton
When you book commercial fire doors in Nuneaton, the aim is simple: doors that close, latch and seal as tested, with records that prove it.
Fire doors in Nuneaton protect escape routes in HMOs, low-rise blocks of flats and schools alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
Each commercial door we fit in Nuneaton gets a record your fire risk assessor can use straight away. Offices, shops and hotels in Nuneaton can have fire doors fitted out of hours so trading is not interrupted.
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:
- Doorsets with veneer, laminate or paint finishes
- Glazed and solid options to certification
- Per-door evidence for your fire risk assessment
- Hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm
What the rules say for Nuneaton
The rules that apply to fire doors in Nuneaton 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 Nuneaton 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.
