What composite fire doors in Neath should include
We provide composite fire doors in Neath (SA10 and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.
In and around Neath, fire door work covers everything from schools to care homes. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Composite doorsets are a popular option for flat entrance programmes, and in Neath they suit blocks where residents want colour choice and low maintenance. We only fit composite doors in Neath in configurations covered by the product's certification.
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:
- Weather detailing for external deck-access doors
- FD30S composite doorset made to measure
- Viewer, numerals and security hardware within evidence
- Certificate reference and photo record
Which fire door rules apply in Neath?
Fire door work in Neath follows Welsh building regulations and the Welsh Approved Document B. The Fire Safety Order 2005 covers workplaces and the shared parts of residential buildings here too, placing the duty on the responsible person.
The English regulation 10 checking regime does not extend to Neath, so how often doors are checked comes from the fire risk assessment. We hand over evidence that fits whatever regime your assessor sets.

Questions
Do you cover SA10 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Neath including SA10, and nearby towns such as Briton Ferry and Swansea. 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.
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.
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.
