Fire door ironmongery in Newbury

Fire door ironmongery for Newbury buildings

If you need fire door ironmongery in Newbury, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.

Around Newbury, small offices, small blocks of flats and schools 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.

Signage for fire doors in Newbury buildings is fitted as part of the job, not as an afterthought. Missing hinge screws and unsuitable locks are routine findings on fire door inspections everywhere; in Newbury we replace them with hardware covered by each door's evidence.

Common hardware defects

Inspections regularly find missing hinge screws, mismatched hinges, plastic-bodied latches, unapproved bolts and locks fitted without intumescent protection. We replace them with items covered by the door's evidence and fit the matching pads and linings.

What you get:

• Fire door signage
• Intumescent pads and lock linings
• Lever handles, pull handles and push plates
• Fire-rated hinges, commonly grade 13

What the rules say for Newbury

In Newbury, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet.

Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Newbury building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.
