Fire door repairs and remedial works in Bordon: what's involved
If you need fire door repairs and remedial works in Bordon, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.
Bordon has a broad mix of buildings, including care homes, family homes after loft conversions and houses with integral garages, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
Send us the inspection report for your Bordon building and we will price the remedial actions line by line. Many repairs in Bordon can be completed in a single visit once matching components are on site.
Working from your inspection report
Send us your inspection report or fire risk assessment actions. We price each defect line by line, carry out the work, and return a record of what was done to each door, with before and after photographs, so you can close the actions off.
As standard, the work covers:
- Before-and-after photos per door
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
- Seal, strip and pad replacement
- Closer replacement and adjustment
Rules and responsibilities in Bordon
England's framework applies in Bordon. Approved Document B guides the fire performance of new and replacement doors under the Building Regulations 2010. Day-to-day duties sit with the responsible person under the Fire Safety Order 2005, and for multi-occupied residential buildings, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties such as giving residents information about fire doors.
For blocks over 11 metres in Bordon, those regulations require communal fire door checks at least every three months and best-endeavours flat entrance door checks each year. In higher-risk buildings, building work is overseen by the Building Safety Regulator, so we check whether approval is needed before starting.

Questions from Bordon
Do you work in Bordon?
Yes, we take on fire door repairs and remedial works in Bordon and the surrounding area, including Farnham and Aldershot. Send your postcode and a few details and we'll come back with survey dates.
How quickly can you survey in Bordon?
It depends on the number of doors and access, but we offer survey dates as soon as we reply to your enquiry. If an inspection has found urgent safety issues, tell us and we'll prioritise.
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.
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.
