Fire door replacement in Lisburn, done to the evidence
From the BT27 postcode district outwards, we take on fire door replacement across Lisburn for homes, blocks and workplaces.
Lisburn has a broad mix of buildings, including family homes after loft conversions, low-rise blocks of flats and schools, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
If a door in your Lisburn building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you. If your Lisburn building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references.
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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
Which fire door rules apply in Lisburn?
Lisburn 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 Lisburn are checked. We hand over evidence that supports it.
Who needs fire door replacement in Lisburn?
From HMOs to offices, the requirement for fire door replacement in Lisburn 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.

It depends on the number of doors and access, but we offer survey dates as soon as we reply to your enquiry. If an inspection has found urgent safety issues, tell us and we'll prioritise.
Can you replace just the door and keep the frame?

Yes. Send us the actions and we will price each fire door item and report back against the same references.
