FD30 fire doors in Stratford-upon-Avon, CV37

FD30 fire doors in Stratford-upon-Avon: what's involved

Our FD30 fire doors service covers Stratford-upon-Avon and the wider Warwickshire area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.

Fire doors in Stratford-upon-Avon protect escape routes in family homes after loft conversions, schools and small offices alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.

In Stratford-upon-Avon, FD30 doors are the usual choice for escape-route corridors, stairs and kitchen doors where the fire strategy asks for 30 minutes. Each FD30 leaf we supply for Stratford-upon-Avon is sized for the opening, rather than trimmed beyond what its certification allows.

Leaf only or a full doorset?

If the existing frame is sound, correctly sized, securely fixed and compatible with the new leaf's certification, a new FD30 leaf can be hung in it. Many frames do not pass that test: old softwood linings, frames that have been cut about for previous doors, or frames with no evidence of how they were fixed. In those cases a certified doorset (leaf, frame and ironmongery tested together) is the cleaner answer and usually the quicker one on site.

We tell you which route each opening needs on the survey, door by door, and why.

What you get:

• Certified FD30 or FD30S leaf, or full doorset
• Frame-to-wall gap sealed with an evidenced material
• Photo record, product data and certificate references at handover
• Fire-tested hinges, latch or lock and intumescent pads
