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

Where do composite fire doors make sense?

Composite doorsets are widely used as flat entrance doors, both inside corridors and on external deck-access walkways where the door faces the weather. Their factory finish avoids repainting, which matters because paint build-up is a common reason seals stop working. Many products also offer security features alongside the fire rating.

Each installation includes:

• Self-closer, smoke and intumescent seals
• Weather detailing for external deck-access doors
• Viewer, numerals and security hardware within evidence
• Certificate reference and photo record
