Communal fire door installation in Tottenham

Getting communal fire doors right in Tottenham

If you need communal fire doors in Tottenham, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.

Buildings in and around Tottenham range from schools to converted flats and mixed-use office buildings. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.

Communal corridors and stairs in Tottenham buildings take the heaviest use, so we choose finishes and hardware that keep working between checks. The evidence pack for each communal door in Tottenham is set out to support whatever checking regime your fire risk assessment sets.

Pairs, vision panels and robust finishes

We fit single, double and leaf-and-a-half communal doors, with vision panels in tested glazing systems and finishes chosen to stand up to use, such as laminates and kick plates covered by the certification. For pairs, the meeting edges, rebates and any door coordinator must match the evidence; see our double fire doors page.

On a typical job that means:

• Certified single, double or leaf-and-a-half doorsets
• Survey of every communal opening and its use
• Evidence pack suitable for regulation 10 records
• Phased programme keeping escape routes protected

Which fire door rules apply in Tottenham?

England's framework applies in Tottenham. 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. In London, the London Fire Brigade is the enforcing authority for fire safety law.

For blocks over 11 metres in Tottenham, 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.
