Fire door replacement in Aylesbury, done to the evidence
Our fire door replacement service covers Aylesbury and the wider Buckinghamshire area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.
In and around Aylesbury, fire door work covers everything from family homes after loft conversions to care homes. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
If a door in your Aylesbury building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you. If your Aylesbury building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references.
Minimal disruption
We never leave an opening without a door. Replacements are scheduled so the new door is on site before the old one comes out, and each opening is finished, tested and photographed the same day wherever possible.
On a typical job that means:
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
- Removal and disposal of the old door
Which fire door rules apply in Aylesbury?
Fire doors in Aylesbury fall under English rules. New and replacement doors are covered by the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. 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.
For residential buildings in Aylesbury above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 adds checks: communal fire doors at least every three months and best-endeavours checks of flat entrance doors at least every twelve months. Higher-risk buildings of at least 18 metres or seven storeys also come under the Building Safety Act 2022, where works may need approval from the Building Safety Regulator.
Which buildings in Aylesbury need fire door replacement?
From HMOs to offices, the requirement for fire door replacement in Aylesbury 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.

Can you work from my fire risk assessment?
Yes. Send us the actions and we will price each fire door item and report back against the same references.

Yes, if the frame is sound and compatible with the new leaf's certification. If not, we replace the whole doorset.
