Fire door frames in Rhyl, done to the evidence
Our fire door frames service in Rhyl is simple: a survey, a fixed quote, certified products and an installation finished to the manufacturer's evidence.
Around Rhyl, light industrial buildings, small offices and care homes 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.
We photograph every frame we fix in Rhyl before the architraves go on, so the hidden work is on record. Frame-to-wall gaps on Rhyl jobs are sealed with materials supported by the test evidence, as BS 8214:2026 sets out.
Frames on their own
Where a leaf is sound but the frame is not, a new compatible frame can sometimes be fitted to the existing leaf, provided the combination is supported by the leaf's certification. More often, a frame replacement is part of a doorset installation.
What you get:
- Architraves and making good
- Fixing at specified centres with packing
- Assessment of frame condition and compatibility
- Photographs of fixing and sealing before covering
What the rules say for Rhyl
Because Rhyl is in Wales, we work to the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales and to the Welsh version of Approved Document B. The responsible person duties under the Fire Safety Order 2005 still apply to workplaces and common parts.
England's fire door checking rules for tall residential buildings do not apply in Wales, so the checking frequency for doors in Rhyl comes from your fire risk assessment.
Which buildings in Rhyl need fire door frames?
From offices to older blocks of flats, the requirement for fire door frames in Rhyl comes from the fire strategy or risk assessment for the building. We work from that document, or help you interpret your inspection report, before quoting.

Questions
Do you work in Rhyl?
Yes, we take on fire door frames in Rhyl and the surrounding area, including Colwyn Bay and Flint. Send your postcode and a few details and we'll come back with survey dates.
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 use expanding foam around a fire door frame?
Only a fire-rated foam with evidence for that use and gap size. Ordinary expanding foam is not suitable.
What is the frame-to-wall gap?
It is the space between the door frame and the surrounding wall, normally hidden by the architrave. If it is not filled with a suitable fire-resisting material, fire and smoke can pass around the door.
