Fire door replacement for Wimbledon buildings
Our fire door replacement service covers Wimbledon and the wider Greater London area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.
Wimbledon has a broad mix of buildings, including clinics, mixed-use office buildings and schools, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
If your Wimbledon building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. If a door in your Wimbledon 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:
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Removal and disposal of the old door
What the rules say for Wimbledon
In Wimbledon, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet. In London, the London Fire Brigade is the enforcing authority for fire safety law.
Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Wimbledon building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.

Do you take away the old doors?
