Fire door replacement: our service in Cricklewood
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Cricklewood, we offer fire door replacement with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
Around Cricklewood, purpose-built blocks of flats, shared houses and schools 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 Cricklewood opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out. If a door in your Cricklewood 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:
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
- Removal and disposal of the old door
- Certified leaf or full doorset
Rules and responsibilities in Cricklewood
England's framework applies in Cricklewood. 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. In London, the London Fire Brigade is the enforcing authority for fire safety law.
For blocks over 11 metres in Cricklewood, 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.
Who needs fire door replacement in Cricklewood?

In Cricklewood, as anywhere, the duty holder varies: a responsible person for a workplace, a landlord or managing agent for a block or HMO, or a homeowner after building work. We adjust access, timing and paperwork to suit whoever commissions the work.
