Double fire doors for Egham buildings
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Egham, we offer double fire doors with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
Egham has a broad mix of buildings, including schools, light industrial buildings and small offices, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
Double doors on wards, school corridors and lobbies in Egham take heavy use, so closing sequence and meeting-edge seals get extra attention. Every pair we fit in Egham is commissioned so both leaves close in the right order and latch.
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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Equal pair or leaf-and-a-half doorsets
- Closers matched to each leaf
- Flush bolts and hold-opens within evidence
- Door coordinators where meeting edges are rebated
Rules and responsibilities in Egham
England's framework applies in Egham. 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 Egham, 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.

Questions from Egham
Do you cover TW20 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Egham including TW20, and nearby towns such as Staines and Ashford (Surrey). The survey and written quote are free.
What happens on a survey in Egham?
We look at every door in scope: the leaf, frame, gaps, seals, hinges, closer, glazing and how the frame is fixed. You then get a written quote that prices each door separately.
What does a door coordinator do?
It holds the leaf that must close second until the first leaf has shut, so rebated meeting edges close in the right order and both leaves latch. Without it, the pair can end up open or misaligned.
Can double fire doors be held open?
Yes, with hold-open devices that release on the fire alarm, or with free-swing closers. Wedges and hooks are not acceptable.
