Fire door ironmongery for Maesteg buildings
From the CF34 postcode district outwards, we take on fire door ironmongery across Maesteg for homes, blocks and workplaces.
In and around Maesteg, fire door work covers everything from light industrial buildings to schools. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
We supply ironmongery for Maesteg fire doors that matches each door's test evidence. Signage for fire doors in Maesteg buildings is fitted as part of the job, not as an afterthought.
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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Fire-rated hinges, commonly grade 13
- Lever handles, pull handles and push plates
- Fire door signage
- Locks and latches covered by the evidence
Rules and responsibilities in Maesteg
Maesteg is in Wales, where new and replacement fire doors are covered by the Building Regulations 2010 as applied in Wales, with the Welsh Approved Document B as guidance. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 also applies, so responsible persons in workplaces and the common parts of blocks must keep fire doors maintained.
One difference from England: regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, with its quarterly and annual fire door checks, does not apply in Wales. Your fire risk assessment sets the checking regime instead, and we work to it.

Questions
Do you cover CF34 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Maesteg including CF34, and nearby towns such as Briton Ferry and Neath. The survey and written quote are free.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Maesteg building?
Yes. Send it over and we can often price straight from it, then confirm on site. We report back against the same door references so you can close actions off.
Can I fit a new lock to a fire door?
Only one that is covered by the door's test evidence, fitted with the correct intumescent protection. A larger lock body or new holes can compromise the door.
How many hinges does a fire door need?
Usually at least three, of the type and grade specified in the door's evidence. Heavier or taller doors may need more.
