Fire door ironmongery for Brighouse buildings
If you need fire door ironmongery in Brighouse, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.
Around Brighouse, houses with integral garages, schools and light industrial buildings 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.
Missing hinge screws and unsuitable locks are routine findings on fire door inspections everywhere; in Brighouse we replace them with hardware covered by each door's evidence. We supply ironmongery for Brighouse fire doors that matches each door's test evidence.
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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Bolts and selectors where specified
- Locks and latches covered by the evidence
- Intumescent pads and lock linings
- Lever handles, pull handles and push plates
Which fire door rules apply in Brighouse?
In Brighouse, 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 Brighouse 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.
