Getting fire door repairs and remedial works right in Norwich
Our fire door repairs and remedial works service covers Norwich and the wider Norfolk area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.
Buildings in and around Norwich range from GP surgeries to care homes and HMOs. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.
Send us the inspection report for your Norwich building and we will price the remedial actions line by line. We prioritise the most serious defects in your Norwich building first and return evidence against each action.
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.
On a typical job that means:
- Closer replacement and adjustment
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Seal, strip and pad replacement
Which fire door rules apply in Norwich?
In Norwich, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet.
Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Norwich building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.

Questions from Norwich
Do you cover NR1 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Norwich including NR1, and nearby towns such as Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft. The survey and written quote are free.
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.
How quickly can remedials be done?
Many defects can be fixed in one visit once components are on site. We prioritise the most serious safety issues first.
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.
