Double fire doors in Skegness

Double fire doors: our service in Skegness

If you need double fire doors in Skegness, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.

Buildings in and around Skegness range from light industrial buildings to family homes after loft conversions and small blocks of flats. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.

Every pair we fit in Skegness is commissioned so both leaves close in the right order and latch. Leaf-and-a-half doors are a practical option for Skegness care homes and schools that need occasional wide access.

Hold-opens and escape

Pairs on corridors are often held open in daily use, with hold-open devices releasing both leaves when the alarm sounds. Where a pair is on an escape route used by the public, the escape hardware and the direction of opening also need to suit the fire strategy.

What you get:

• Door coordinators where meeting edges are rebated
• Closers matched to each leaf
• Flush bolts and hold-opens within evidence
• Meeting-stile intumescent and smoke seals

Which fire door rules apply in Skegness?

In Skegness, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet.

Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Skegness building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.
