Fire door replacement for Belfast buildings
Our fire door replacement service covers all of Belfast, across postcode districts including BT1, BT15 and BT9.
If a door in your Belfast building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you. If your Belfast building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references.
Belfast has a mix of buildings, from purpose-built blocks to converted houses and commercial premises. We tailor the programme to the building, not the other way round.
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.
The regulations behind fire doors in Belfast
Belfast is in Northern Ireland, where fire doors are covered by the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012 and Technical Booklet E on fire safety. Duties in non-domestic premises come from the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010.
The English regulation 10 checking regime does not apply here, so the fire risk assessment sets how often doors in Belfast are checked. We hand over evidence that supports it.
