Commercial fire doors: our service in Swindon
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Swindon, we offer commercial fire doors with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
In and around Swindon, fire door work covers everything from student accommodation to care homes. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Each commercial door we fit in Swindon gets a record your fire risk assessor can use straight away. Offices, shops and hotels in Swindon 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:
- Out-of-hours and phased working
- Per-door evidence for your fire risk assessment
- Hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm
- Access control and electric locking interfaces
Which fire door rules apply in Swindon?
In Swindon, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet.
Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Swindon building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.

Questions
Is Swindon within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Swindon in Wiltshire and neighbouring towns such as Cirencester. There is no charge for the survey.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Swindon building?
Yes. Send it over and we can often price straight from it, then confirm on site. We report back against the same door references so you can close actions off.
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.
Can veneered fire doors match our interior?
Many certified doorsets come in a wide range of veneers and laminates, so matching an interior scheme is usually possible.
