Fire door replacement in Royton

Fire door replacement: our service in Royton

Looking for fire door replacement in Royton? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across Royton and the wider Greater Manchester area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.

In and around Royton, fire door work covers everything from small blocks of flats to small offices. We plan each job around the people who use the building.

We never leave a Royton opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out. If a door in your Royton 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
• Frame repair or replacement where needed
• Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification

The regulations behind fire doors in Royton

Fire doors in Royton 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.

For residential buildings in Royton 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.
