Fire door replacement for Cirencester buildings
We provide fire door replacement in Cirencester (GL7 and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.
Fire doors in Cirencester protect escape routes in light industrial buildings, small offices and family homes after loft conversions alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
If a door in your Cirencester building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you. If your Cirencester building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references.
Minimal disruption
We never leave an opening without a door. Replacements are scheduled so the new door is on site before the old one comes out, and each opening is finished, tested and photographed the same day wherever possible.
What you get:
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Removal and disposal of the old door
Rules and responsibilities in Cirencester
England's framework applies in Cirencester. 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 Cirencester, 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.

Common questions
Is Cirencester within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Cirencester in Gloucestershire and neighbouring towns such as Stroud. There is no charge for the survey.
What happens on a survey in Cirencester?
We look at every door in scope: the leaf, frame, gaps, seals, hinges, closer, glazing and how the frame is fixed. You then get a written quote that prices each door separately.
How do I know if a fire door needs replacing?
A competent inspection will tell you. Typical reasons are serious damage, gaps that cannot be corrected, no evidence the door is a fire door, or unapproved alterations such as new holes or glazing.
Can you work from my fire risk assessment?
Yes. Send us the actions and we will price each fire door item and report back against the same references.
