What double fire doors in Woking should include
Looking for double fire doors in Woking? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across Woking and the wider Surrey area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.
Around Woking, HMOs, care homes and schools all depend on fire doors that close, latch and seal. We survey each opening and tell you plainly which doors need work and which don't.
Every pair we fit in Woking is commissioned so both leaves close in the right order and latch. Leaf-and-a-half doors are a practical option for Woking 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.
Each installation includes:
- Flush bolts and hold-opens within evidence
- Meeting-stile intumescent and smoke seals
- Closers matched to each leaf
- Door coordinators where meeting edges are rebated
Which fire door rules apply in Woking?
In Woking, 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 Woking 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.

Common questions
Is Woking within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Woking in Surrey and neighbouring towns such as Guildford. There is no charge for the survey.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Woking building?
Yes. Send it over and we can often price straight from it, then confirm on site. We report back against the same door references so you can close actions off.
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.
Why does the gap between the two leaves matter?
The meeting edges are where flame and smoke can pass most easily. The gap and the seals there must match the certification for the pair to perform as tested.
