Getting fire door repairs and remedial works right in High Wycombe
Our fire door repairs and remedial works service covers High Wycombe and the wider Buckinghamshire area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.
Fire doors in High Wycombe protect escape routes in purpose-built flats, industrial units and converted period houses alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
Send us the inspection report for your High Wycombe building and we will price the remedial actions line by line. Many repairs in High Wycombe 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:
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Closer replacement and adjustment
- Re-glazing to the original system
- Before-and-after photos per door
What the rules say for High Wycombe
In High Wycombe, 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 High Wycombe 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 from High Wycombe
Do you work in High Wycombe?
Yes, we take on fire door repairs and remedial works in High Wycombe and the surrounding area, including Amersham and Maidenhead. Send your postcode and a few details and we'll come back with survey dates.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my High Wycombe 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 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.
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.
