What fire door replacement in Hayes should include
Looking for fire door replacement in Hayes? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across Hayes and the wider Greater London area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.
Fire doors in Hayes protect escape routes in hotels, student accommodation and schools alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
If your Hayes building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. If a door in your Hayes 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.
On a typical job that means:
- Removal and disposal of the old door
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
The regulations behind fire doors in Hayes
Fire doors in Hayes fall under English rules. New and replacement doors are covered by the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. In workplaces and the common parts of blocks, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, as clarified by the Fire Safety Act 2021, puts the duty on the responsible person to keep fire doors suitable and maintained. In London, the London Fire Brigade is the enforcing authority for fire safety law.
For residential buildings in Hayes above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 adds checks: communal fire doors at least every three months and best-endeavours checks of flat entrance doors at least every twelve months. Higher-risk buildings of at least 18 metres or seven storeys also come under the Building Safety Act 2022, where works may need approval from the Building Safety Regulator.
