Fire door repairs and remedial works: our service in Canning Town
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Canning Town, we offer fire door repairs and remedial works with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
Buildings in and around Canning Town range from shared houses to restaurants and hotels. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.
Many repairs in Canning Town can be completed in a single visit once matching components are on site. Send us the inspection report for your Canning Town building and we will price the remedial actions line by line.
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
- Re-glazing to the original system
- Seal, strip and pad replacement
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
The regulations behind fire doors in Canning Town
Fire doors in Canning Town fall under English rules. New and replacement doors are covered by the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. In workplaces and the common parts of blocks, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, as clarified by the Fire Safety Act 2021, puts the duty on the responsible person to keep fire doors suitable and maintained. In London, the London Fire Brigade is the enforcing authority for fire safety law.
For residential buildings in Canning Town above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 adds checks: communal fire doors at least every three months and best-endeavours checks of flat entrance doors at least every twelve months. Higher-risk buildings of at least 18 metres or seven storeys also come under the Building Safety Act 2022, where works may need approval from the Building Safety Regulator.

Questions
Do you work in Canning Town?
Yes, we take on fire door repairs and remedial works in Canning Town and the surrounding area, including Stratford and Bow. Send your postcode and a few details and we'll come back with survey dates.
Do I need to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to give us access to the doors. For blocks and commercial buildings, a caretaker or site contact is fine; for HMOs and homes, we agree a time with you or your tenants.
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.
