FD60 fire doors for Rhosllannerchrugog buildings
If you need FD60 fire doors in Rhosllannerchrugog, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.
Around Rhosllannerchrugog, small offices, small blocks of flats and light industrial buildings 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.
For FD60 work in Rhosllannerchrugog we generally fit certified doorsets, so frame and leaf share the same test evidence. FD60 openings in Rhosllannerchrugog buildings tend to be stair cores, plant rooms and bin stores in larger blocks and commercial premises.
When does a building need FD60 rather than FD30?
FD60 doors appear where the fire strategy asks a wall to resist fire for an hour: stair cores and lobbies in taller buildings, plant and boiler rooms, some service risers, refuse stores and compartment walls between different uses. The rating follows the wall. Fitting an FD30 door in a 60-minute wall leaves a weak point, and fitting FD60 everywhere wastes money and makes doors harder to open.
We work from your fire strategy, the building's drawings or the fire risk assessment. Where these disagree with what is on site, we flag it before ordering.
What you get:
- 60-minute glazing systems where vision panels are needed
- Check of the fire strategy rating for each opening
- Intumescent and smoke seals as specified
- Frame fixing and structural gap sealing recorded with photos
The regulations behind fire doors in Rhosllannerchrugog
Rhosllannerchrugog is in Wales, where new and replacement fire doors are covered by the Building Regulations 2010 as applied in Wales, with the Welsh Approved Document B as guidance. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 also applies, so responsible persons in workplaces and the common parts of blocks must keep fire doors maintained.
One difference from England: regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, with its quarterly and annual fire door checks, does not apply in Wales. Your fire risk assessment sets the checking regime instead, and we work to it.

Questions
Do you cover LL14 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Rhosllannerchrugog including LL14, and nearby towns such as Wrexham and Buckley. The survey and written quote are free.
Do I need to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to give us access to the doors. For blocks and commercial buildings, a caretaker or site contact is fine; for HMOs and homes, we agree a time with you or your tenants.
Can I upgrade an FD30 door to FD60?
Not by adding parts. An FD30 leaf cannot be turned into an FD60 door with extra strips or paint. If an opening needs 60 minutes, the leaf, and usually the frame, need to be replaced with a certified FD60 product.
Are FD60 doors harder to open?
They are heavier, so the closer has to be chosen and adjusted with care. A well-set closer will still close and latch the door while keeping the opening force reasonable for the people who use it.
