Fire door repairs and remedial works in Fleetwood, done to the evidence
We provide fire door repairs and remedial works in Fleetwood (FY7 and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.
Fire doors in Fleetwood protect escape routes in schools, small blocks of flats and houses with integral garages alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
Many repairs in Fleetwood can be completed in a single visit once matching components are on site. Send us the inspection report for your Fleetwood building and we will price the remedial actions line by line.
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:
- Re-glazing to the original system
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
- Seal, strip and pad replacement
What the rules say for Fleetwood
The rules that apply to fire doors in Fleetwood are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts.
Where a Fleetwood block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.

Questions
Do you work in Fleetwood?

How quickly can you survey in Fleetwood?
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.
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.
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.
