Fire door replacement for Truro buildings
Looking for fire door replacement in Truro? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across Truro and the wider Cornwall area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.
Buildings in and around Truro range from family homes after loft conversions to schools and small offices. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.
We never leave a Truro opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out. If a door in your Truro 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.
Each installation includes:
- Removal and disposal of the old door
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
Fire door law for Truro properties
England's framework applies in Truro. Approved Document B guides the fire performance of new and replacement doors under the Building Regulations 2010. Day-to-day duties sit with the responsible person under the Fire Safety Order 2005, and for multi-occupied residential buildings, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties such as giving residents information about fire doors.
For blocks over 11 metres in Truro, those regulations require communal fire door checks at least every three months and best-endeavours flat entrance door checks each year. In higher-risk buildings, building work is overseen by the Building Safety Regulator, so we check whether approval is needed before starting.
