Getting fire door replacement right in Stratford
From the E15 postcode district outwards, we take on fire door replacement across Stratford for homes, blocks and workplaces.
Fire doors in Stratford protect escape routes in hotels, shared houses and student accommodation alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
We never leave a Stratford opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out. If a door in your Stratford building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you.
Repair or replace?
Plenty of fire door faults can be fixed: worn seals, loose hinges, failed closers, small gaps. Replacement is the right call when the leaf is split, delaminated or badly damaged, when gaps are too large to correct within the manufacturer's guidance, when the door was never a fire door, or when unapproved holes and alterations have been made. We explain the reason for every replacement we recommend. Our repairs page covers what can be fixed.
As standard, the work covers:
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
What the rules say for Stratford
England's framework applies in Stratford. 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. Enforcement of fire safety law in Stratford sits with the London Fire Brigade.
For blocks over 11 metres in Stratford, 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.

Questions
Do you cover E15 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Stratford including E15, and nearby towns such as Bow and Canning Town. The survey and written quote are free.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Stratford building?
Yes. Send it over and we can often price straight from it, then confirm on site. We report back against the same door references so you can close actions off.
Can you replace just the door and keep the frame?
Yes, if the frame is sound and compatible with the new leaf's certification. If not, we replace the whole doorset.
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.
