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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Per-door evidence for your fire risk assessment
- Glazed and solid options to certification
- Doorsets with veneer, laminate or paint finishes
- Access control and electric locking interfaces
