What composite fire doors in Norfolk should include
We provide composite fire doors across Norfolk, covering 4 towns and 45 postcode districts, including Norwich, Great Yarmouth and King's Lynn.
For deck-access blocks in and around Norfolk, we specify composite doors certified for external use, with the right threshold detail. Composite doorsets are a popular option for flat entrance programmes, and in Norfolk they suit blocks where residents want colour choice and low maintenance.
Norfolk has a mix of buildings, from purpose-built blocks to converted houses and commercial premises. We tailor the programme to the building, not the other way round.
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.
Fire door law for Norfolk properties
England's framework applies in Norfolk. 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.
For blocks over 11 metres in Norfolk, 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.

Composite fire doors questions
Do you provide composite fire doors across Norfolk?
Yes. We cover all of Norfolk, including Norwich and Great Yarmouth. Surveys and written quotes are free.
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.
