Looking for fire door repairs and remedial works in Prestwich? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across Prestwich and the wider Greater Manchester area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.

Fire doors in Prestwich protect escape routes in houses with integral garages, light industrial buildings and schools alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.

Send us the inspection report for your Prestwich building and we will price the remedial actions line by line. Many repairs in Prestwich 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.

What you get:

• Seal, strip and pad replacement
• Hinge, screw and latch repairs
• Re-glazing to the original system
• Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report

Rules and responsibilities in Prestwich
