Fire door replacement for Finchley buildings
From the N3 postcode district outwards, we take on fire door replacement across Finchley for homes, blocks and workplaces.
Around Finchley, converted flats, purpose-built blocks of flats 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.
If your Finchley building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. If a door in your Finchley building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you.
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.
Each installation includes:
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Removal and disposal of the old door
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
What the rules say for Finchley
The rules that apply to fire doors in Finchley 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 Finchley 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.

Questions
Do you cover N3 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Finchley including N3, and nearby towns such as Muswell Hill and Cricklewood. The survey and written quote are free.
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 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.
Do you take away the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of old doors and packaging is included in our quotes unless you ask otherwise.
