Composite fire doors: our service in Bletchley

For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Bletchley, we offer composite fire doors with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.

In and around Bletchley, fire door work covers everything from schools to family homes after loft conversions. We plan each job around the people who use the building.

Composite doorsets are a popular option for flat entrance programmes, and in Bletchley they suit blocks where residents want colour choice and low maintenance. We only fit composite doors in Bletchley in configurations covered by the product's certification.

What to check before you buy

Composite doors vary widely. The certification must cover the whole doorset as supplied: the core, skin, frame, glazing, letterplate, viewer and every item of hardware. Ask to see the certificate and the installation instructions, and check that the door's configuration, such as a side panel or glazed panel, is actually covered. BS 8214:2026 now includes maintenance guidance for composite and metal doors, reflecting how common they have become.

Each installation includes:

• Viewer, numerals and security hardware within evidence
• Self-closer, smoke and intumescent seals
• Weather detailing for external deck-access doors
• FD30S composite doorset made to measure
