How we fit composite doorsets
Composite doorsets are installed strictly to the manufacturer's instructions, which typically set out fixing positions, packing, the sealing of the frame-to-wall gap and threshold details. We set the closer so that it closes and latches the door, test the locks and record everything for your files. Where a resident or freeholder chooses colours, we make sure the chosen option is within the certified range.

Common questions
Do you provide composite fire doors across County Armagh?
Yes. We cover all of County Armagh, including Craigavon and Portadown. Surveys and written quotes are free.
Are composite fire doors as good as timber ones?
Both can perform well when they are certified and installed correctly. Composite doors offer low maintenance and colour choice; timber doorsets offer more flexibility on sizes and finishes. The certification and installation matter more than the material.
Can composite fire doors face the weather?
Some are designed for external use on deck-access blocks. The product must be certified for that use and fitted with the right threshold and weather detailing.
