Getting fire door replacement right in Canary Wharf
When you book fire door replacement in Canary Wharf, the aim is simple: doors that close, latch and seal as tested, with records that prove it.
Buildings in and around Canary Wharf range from shared houses to care homes and restaurants. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.
If a door in your Canary Wharf building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you. If your Canary Wharf 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.
On a typical job that means:
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Removal and disposal of the old door
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
The regulations behind fire doors in Canary Wharf
In Canary Wharf, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet. Enforcement of fire safety law in Canary Wharf sits with the London Fire Brigade.
Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Canary Wharf building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.
Which buildings in Canary Wharf need fire door replacement?
