If your County Down building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. If a door in your County Down building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you.
Managing agents, landlords, schools, care providers, businesses and homeowners in County Down can all use one team for survey, supply, installation and evidence. We plan work around occupants and hand over a record for every door.
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.
