Fire door replacement for Gerrards Cross buildings
Our fire door replacement service in Gerrards Cross is simple: a survey, a fixed quote, certified products and an installation finished to the manufacturer's evidence.
Fire doors in Gerrards Cross protect escape routes in care homes, schools and houses with integral garages alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
If a door in your Gerrards Cross building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you. If your Gerrards Cross building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references.
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.
Each installation includes:
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Assessment of repair versus replacement

Questions
Is Gerrards Cross within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Gerrards Cross in Buckinghamshire and neighbouring towns such as Chalfont St Peter. 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.
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.
Can you replace just the door and keep the frame?
Yes, if the frame is sound and compatible with the new leaf's certification. If not, we replace the whole doorset.
