Fire door replacement in Deeside: what's involved
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Deeside, we offer fire door replacement with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
Deeside has a broad mix of buildings, including schools, small offices and family homes after loft conversions, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
We never leave a Deeside opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out. If a door in your Deeside 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.
On a typical job that means:
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Removal and disposal of the old door
Fire door law for Deeside properties
Because Deeside is in Wales, we work to the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales and to the Welsh version of Approved Document B. The responsible person duties under the Fire Safety Order 2005 still apply to workplaces and common parts.
England's fire door checking rules for tall residential buildings do not apply in Wales, so the checking frequency for doors in Deeside comes from your fire risk assessment.
Buildings and duty holders in Deeside
Typical settings for fire door replacement include blocks of flats, HMOs and schools. In Deeside, as anywhere, the duty holder varies: a responsible person for a workplace, a landlord or managing agent for a block or HMO, or a homeowner after building work. We adjust access, timing and paperwork to suit whoever commissions the work.
