Fire door repairs and remedial works: our service in Kirkby
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Kirkby, we offer fire door repairs and remedial works with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
Fire doors in Kirkby protect escape routes in family homes after loft conversions, care homes and schools alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
We prioritise the most serious defects in your Kirkby building first and return evidence against each action. Many repairs in Kirkby 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.
Each installation includes:
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
- Before-and-after photos per door
- Re-glazing to the original system
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
