Composite fire doors: our service in Wood Green
If you need composite fire doors in Wood Green, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.
In and around Wood Green, fire door work covers everything from mixed-use office buildings to restaurants. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Composite doorsets are a popular option for flat entrance programmes, and in Wood Green they suit blocks where residents want colour choice and low maintenance. We only fit composite doors in Wood Green in configurations covered by the product's certification.
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.
What you get:
- Certificate reference and photo record
- Weather detailing for external deck-access doors
- FD30S composite doorset made to measure
- Self-closer, smoke and intumescent seals
Fire door law for Wood Green properties
England's framework applies in Wood Green. 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 Wood Green, 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.

Questions from Wood Green
Do you cover N22 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Wood Green including N22, and nearby towns such as Muswell Hill and Tottenham. The survey and written quote are free.
Do I need to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to give us access to the doors. For blocks and commercial buildings, a caretaker or site contact is fine; for HMOs and homes, we agree a time with you or your tenants.
Do composite fire doors need a closer?
Yes, as flat entrance doors they need a self-closing device that closes and latches them. This can be overhead or concealed, depending on the certified options.
Can I add a letterbox to a composite fire door?
Only if the letterplate is part of the certified doorset. Cutting one in afterwards would compromise the door's fire performance.
