Fire door replacement for Ayrshire buildings
Across Ayrshire, from Kilmarnock to Ayr, we survey, supply and fit fire door replacement for homes, blocks of flats and workplaces.
If your Ayrshire building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. We never leave a Ayrshire opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out.
Wherever your building is in Ayrshire, the fire safety duties come from national rules, and our installation standard is the same.
Repair or replace?
Plenty of fire door faults can be fixed: worn seals, loose hinges, failed closers, small gaps. Replacement is the right call when the leaf is split, delaminated or badly damaged, when gaps are too large to correct within the manufacturer's guidance, when the door was never a fire door, or when unapproved holes and alterations have been made. We explain the reason for every replacement we recommend. Our repairs page covers what can be fixed.
What the rules say for Ayrshire
In Ayrshire, fire doors are specified against Scotland's Technical Handbooks (Section 2: Fire) under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, rather than Approved Document B. Duties in non-domestic premises come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006.
England's regulation 10 does not apply in Scotland. We follow the building's fire risk assessment and, where building work needs a warrant, the local authority's requirements.
The steps on a Ayrshire installation
- Review the inspection report or survey each door
- Recommend repair or replacement with reasons
- Order replacements to size
- Remove the old door only when the new one is on site
- Install, test and record each opening
- Dispose of old doors and hand over evidence
