Fire door replacement for Basildon buildings
If you need fire door replacement in Basildon, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.
In and around Basildon, fire door work covers everything from converted period houses to GP surgeries. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
If your Basildon building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. If a door in your Basildon 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.
What you get:
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Removal and disposal of the old door
