Getting fire door repairs and remedial works right in Archway
From the N19 postcode district outwards, we take on fire door repairs and remedial works across Archway for homes, blocks and workplaces.
Buildings in and around Archway range from purpose-built blocks of flats to clinics and hotels. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.
We prioritise the most serious defects in your Archway building first and return evidence against each action. Many repairs in Archway can be completed in a single visit once matching components are on site.
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.
On a typical job that means:
- Before-and-after photos per door
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Re-glazing to the original system
