Fire door replacement: our service in Beckenham
Our fire door replacement service in Beckenham is simple: a survey, a fixed quote, certified products and an installation finished to the manufacturer's evidence.
Around Beckenham, care homes, student accommodation and restaurants all depend on fire doors that close, latch and seal. We survey each opening and tell you plainly which doors need work and which don't.
We never leave a Beckenham opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out. If a door in your Beckenham 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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
Fire door law for Beckenham properties
The rules that apply to fire doors in Beckenham are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts. In London, the London Fire Brigade is the enforcing authority for fire safety law.
Where a Beckenham block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.

Common questions
Do you work in Beckenham?
Yes, we take on fire door replacement in Beckenham and the surrounding area, including Catford and Croydon. Send your postcode and a few details and we'll come back with survey dates.
Do I need to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to give us access to the doors. For blocks and commercial buildings, a caretaker or site contact is fine; for HMOs and homes, we agree a time with you or your tenants.
Can you replace just the door and keep the frame?
Yes, if the frame is sound and compatible with the new leaf's certification. If not, we replace the whole doorset.
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.
