Commercial fire doors in West Sussex, done to the evidence
Across West Sussex, from Crawley to Worthing, we survey, supply and fit commercial fire doors for homes, blocks of flats and workplaces.
For commercial buildings in West Sussex, we coordinate access control and alarm interfaces before the doors arrive. Each commercial door we fit in West Sussex gets a record your fire risk assessor can use straight away.
Fire door work in West Sussex spans housing providers with large estates, individual landlords, businesses and homeowners. We price every job from a survey, never from a list price alone, because the condition of the frames and the hardware makes a real difference.
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.
Fire door law for West Sussex properties
England's framework applies in West Sussex. 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 West Sussex, 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.
