Fire door ironmongery across Hampshire

Fire door ironmongery in Hampshire: what's involved

Whether your building is in Southampton, Portsmouth or a smaller place in Hampshire, we can provide fire door ironmongery with the same evidence-led approach.

We supply ironmongery for Hampshire fire doors that matches each door's test evidence. Signage for fire doors in Hampshire buildings is fitted as part of the job, not as an afterthought.

Hampshire has a mix of buildings, from purpose-built blocks to converted houses and commercial premises. We tailor the programme to the building, not the other way round.

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.

The regulations behind fire doors in Hampshire

England's framework applies in Hampshire. Approved Document B guides the fire performance of new and replacement doors under the Building Regulations 2010. Day-to-day duties sit with the responsible person under the Fire Safety Order 2005, and for multi-occupied residential buildings, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties such as giving residents information about fire doors.

For blocks over 11 metres in Hampshire, those regulations require communal fire door checks at least every three months and best-endeavours flat entrance door checks each year. In higher-risk buildings, building work is overseen by the Building Safety Regulator, so we check whether approval is needed before starting.
