Double fire doors in Kidsgrove

Double fire doors for Kidsgrove buildings

Looking for double fire doors in Kidsgrove? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across Kidsgrove and the wider Staffordshire area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.

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

Leaf-and-a-half doors are a practical option for Kidsgrove care homes and schools that need occasional wide access. Double doors on wards, school corridors and lobbies in Kidsgrove take heavy use, so closing sequence and meeting-edge seals get extra attention.

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:

• Commissioning of closing sequence
• Door coordinators where meeting edges are rebated
• Flush bolts and hold-opens within evidence
• Equal pair or leaf-and-a-half doorsets

Fire door law for Kidsgrove properties

In Kidsgrove, 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 Kidsgrove 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.
