FD60 fire door installation in Yeadon

FD60 fire doors in Yeadon, done to the evidence

Looking for FD60 fire doors in Yeadon? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across Yeadon and the wider West Yorkshire area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.

Around Yeadon, small blocks of flats, care homes and small offices 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 Yeadon we generally fit certified doorsets, so frame and leaf share the same test evidence. FD60 openings in Yeadon 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.

As standard, the work covers:

• 60-minute glazing systems where vision panels are needed
• Check of the fire strategy rating for each opening
• Frame fixing and structural gap sealing recorded with photos
• Intumescent and smoke seals as specified
