Fire door replacement for Old Trafford buildings
When you book fire door replacement in Old Trafford, the aim is simple: doors that close, latch and seal as tested, with records that prove it.
Old Trafford has a broad mix of buildings, including care homes, small offices and light industrial buildings, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
If your Old Trafford building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. We never leave a Old Trafford 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.
Each installation includes:
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
Fire door law for Old Trafford properties
In Old Trafford, 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.
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 Old Trafford 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.
