Fire door ironmongery in Harrogate, done to the evidence
If you need fire door ironmongery in Harrogate, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.
Buildings in and around Harrogate range from HMOs to low-rise blocks of flats and care homes. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.
We supply ironmongery for Harrogate fire doors that matches each door's test evidence. Signage for fire doors in Harrogate 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.
On a typical job that means:
- Fire door signage
- Bolts and selectors where specified
- Intumescent pads and lock linings
- Fire-rated hinges, commonly grade 13
Which fire door rules apply in Harrogate?
The rules that apply to fire doors in Harrogate 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 Harrogate 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.
