Getting fire door ironmongery right in Hazel Grove
Our fire door ironmongery service covers Hazel Grove and the wider Greater Manchester area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.
In and around Hazel Grove, fire door work covers everything from family homes after loft conversions to small blocks of flats. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Missing hinge screws and unsuitable locks are routine findings on fire door inspections everywhere; in Hazel Grove we replace them with hardware covered by each door's evidence. Signage for fire doors in Hazel Grove buildings is fitted as part of the job, not as an afterthought.
Signage
Most fire doors need a sign saying whether they should be kept shut, kept locked or are automatic. We fit signage appropriate to the door's use as part of the installation.
What you get:
- Intumescent pads and lock linings
- Locks and latches covered by the evidence
- Lever handles, pull handles and push plates
- Fire door signage
