What fire door repairs and remedial works in Bedfordshire should include
Whether your building is in Luton, Bedford or a smaller place in Bedfordshire, we can provide fire door repairs and remedial works with the same evidence-led approach.
Send us the inspection report for your Bedfordshire building and we will price the remedial actions line by line. We prioritise the most serious defects in your Bedfordshire building first and return evidence against each action.
Wherever your building is in Bedfordshire, the fire safety duties come from national rules, and our installation standard is the same.
What can be repaired?
Most defects found on inspection are repairable: replacing damaged intumescent strips and smoke seals, re-fixing or replacing hinges and missing screws, replacing or adjusting closers, fixing latches and keeps, fitting intumescent pads behind hinges and locks, re-glazing with the correct system and correcting minor gap issues where the manufacturer's guidance allows. Some repairs, such as hardwood edge repairs, must follow the manufacturer's method to stay within the evidence.
What the rules say for Bedfordshire
In Bedfordshire, 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 Bedfordshire 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.

Questions
Do you provide fire door repairs and remedial works across Bedfordshire?
Yes. We cover all of Bedfordshire, including Luton and Bedford. Surveys and written quotes are free.
Can large gaps around a fire door be fixed?
Sometimes. Small gap problems can often be corrected by adjusting hinges or approved edge repairs. Gaps far beyond the certification usually mean the door or frame must be replaced.
Do you use original manufacturer parts?
We use components that match the door's certification, which is often the manufacturer's own parts or products listed in its evidence.
