Fire door replacement: our service in Peckham
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Peckham, we offer fire door replacement with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
Peckham has a broad mix of buildings, including purpose-built blocks of flats, care homes and clinics, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
If your Peckham building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. We never leave a Peckham opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out.
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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
What the rules say for Peckham
The rules that apply to fire doors in Peckham 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. Enforcement of fire safety law in Peckham sits with the London Fire Brigade.
Where a Peckham 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.

A competent inspection will tell you. Typical reasons are serious damage, gaps that cannot be corrected, no evidence the door is a fire door, or unapproved alterations such as new holes or glazing.
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.
