Fire door frames: our service in Bedworth
If you need fire door frames in Bedworth, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.
Around Bedworth, schools, light industrial buildings and houses with integral garages 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.
Frame-to-wall gaps on Bedworth jobs are sealed with materials supported by the test evidence, as BS 8214:2026 sets out. In older buildings the frame can be the weak point even where the leaf is sound, so we check it on every Bedworth survey.
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:
- Fixing at specified centres with packing
- Photographs of fixing and sealing before covering
- Hardwood or certified frames to suit the door
- Architraves and making good
Rules and responsibilities in Bedworth
The rules that apply to fire doors in Bedworth are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts.
Where a Bedworth block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.
Who needs fire door frames in Bedworth?

Questions from Bedworth
Is Bedworth within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Bedworth in Warwickshire and neighbouring towns such as Nuneaton. There is no charge for the survey.
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.
Why do you photograph the frame before fitting architraves?
Because the fixing and sealing are hidden once the architraves go on. Photographs give you evidence that the hidden work was done correctly.
Can a new frame be fitted to my existing door?
Sometimes, if the frame is compatible with the door's certification. Often it is simpler and better evidenced to replace the whole doorset.
