Composite fire doors in Maghull

Composite fire doors for Maghull buildings

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

Fire doors in Maghull protect escape routes in schools, small blocks of flats and family homes after loft conversions alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.

For deck-access blocks in and around Maghull, we specify composite doors certified for external use, with the right threshold detail. We only fit composite doors in Maghull 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.

On a typical job that means:

• Weather detailing for external deck-access doors
• FD30S composite doorset made to measure
• Certificate reference and photo record
• Self-closer, smoke and intumescent seals
