Fire door repairs and remedial works in Dudley, done to the evidence
Our fire door repairs and remedial works service covers Dudley and the wider West Midlands area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.
Around Dudley, HMOs, industrial units and care homes all depend on fire doors that close, latch and seal. We survey each opening and tell you plainly which doors need work and which don't.
We prioritise the most serious defects in your Dudley building first and return evidence against each action. Many repairs in Dudley 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.
On a typical job that means:
- Seal, strip and pad replacement
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
- Closer replacement and adjustment
Fire door law for Dudley properties
In Dudley, 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 Dudley 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.
Which buildings in Dudley need fire door repairs and remedial works?
From blocks of flats to offices, the requirement for fire door repairs and remedial works in Dudley comes from the fire strategy or risk assessment for the building. We work from that document, or help you interpret your inspection report, before quoting.

Questions from Dudley
Is Dudley within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Dudley in West Midlands and neighbouring towns such as Brierley Hill. There is no charge for the survey.
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.
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.
