Fire door repairs and remedial works for Sandhurst buildings
Looking for fire door repairs and remedial works in Sandhurst? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across Sandhurst and the wider Berkshire area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.
Around Sandhurst, care homes, small blocks of flats and schools 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.
We prioritise the most serious defects in your Sandhurst building first and return evidence against each action. Many repairs in Sandhurst can be completed in a single visit once matching components are on site.
What cannot be repaired
Doors with major splits, burns, delamination, large unapproved holes, or gaps far beyond what the certification allows usually need replacing. Paint and filler cannot fix a structural problem in a fire door.
As standard, the work covers:
- Before-and-after photos per door
- Closer replacement and adjustment
- Re-glazing to the original system
- Seal, strip and pad replacement
The regulations behind fire doors in Sandhurst
The rules that apply to fire doors in Sandhurst 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 Sandhurst 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.

Questions from Sandhurst
Do you cover GU47 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Sandhurst including GU47, and nearby towns such as Crowthorne and Yateley. The survey and written quote are free.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Sandhurst 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 paint over intumescent strips?
Painting over smoke seals stops them working, and heavy paint can affect intumescent strips. Damaged or painted seals should be replaced with the specified type.
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.
