Composite fire doors for Greenford buildings
From the UB6 postcode district outwards, we take on composite fire doors across Greenford for homes, blocks and workplaces.
Around Greenford, restaurants, hotels and mixed-use office buildings all depend on fire doors that close, latch and seal. We survey each opening and tell you plainly which doors need work and which don't.
For deck-access blocks in and around Greenford, we specify composite doors certified for external use, with the right threshold detail. We only fit composite doors in Greenford 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.
On a typical job that means:
- Self-closer, smoke and intumescent seals
- Weather detailing for external deck-access doors
- Viewer, numerals and security hardware within evidence
- Advice on certified composite products and options
Which fire door rules apply in Greenford?
The rules that apply to fire doors in Greenford are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts. In London, the London Fire Brigade is the enforcing authority for fire safety law.
Where a Greenford block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.

Questions from Greenford
Do you cover UB6 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Greenford including UB6, and nearby towns such as Northolt and Southall. The survey and written quote are free.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Greenford 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 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.
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.
