Getting fire door replacement right in Irvine
From the KA12 postcode district outwards, we take on fire door replacement across Irvine for homes, blocks and workplaces.
In and around Irvine, fire door work covers everything from small offices to care homes. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
We never leave a Irvine opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out. If a door in your Irvine building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you.
After an inspection report
Most replacement work follows a fire door inspection or fire risk assessment. Send us the report and we will price each action, replacement or repair, door by door, so you can prioritise. Our guide to failed inspections explains how to read the findings.
As standard, the work covers:
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
- Removal and disposal of the old door
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Certified leaf or full doorset
The regulations behind fire doors in Irvine
In Irvine, 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.
