Fire door repairs and remedial works: our service in York
Looking for fire door repairs and remedial works in York? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across York and the wider North Yorkshire area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.
York has a broad mix of buildings, including GP surgeries, purpose-built flats and schools, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
Send us the inspection report for your York building and we will price the remedial actions line by line. We prioritise the most serious defects in your York building first and return evidence against each action.
What cannot be repaired
Doors with major splits, burns, delamination, large unapproved holes, or gaps far beyond what the certification allows usually need replacing. Paint and filler cannot fix a structural problem in a fire door.
On a typical job that means:
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Before-and-after photos per door
- Closer replacement and adjustment
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report

In workplaces and the common parts of blocks, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, as clarified by the Fire Safety Act 2021, puts the duty on the responsible person to keep fire doors suitable and maintained.

Questions from York
Is York within your coverage area?
It is. We cover York in North Yorkshire and neighbouring towns such as Selby. There is no charge for the survey.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my York building?
Yes. Send it over and we can often price straight from it, then confirm on site. We report back against the same door references so you can close actions off.
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.
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.
