What fire door replacement in Caerphilly should include
From the CF83 postcode district outwards, we take on fire door replacement across Caerphilly for homes, blocks and workplaces.
In and around Caerphilly, fire door work covers everything from small offices to houses with integral garages. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
If your Caerphilly building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. If a door in your Caerphilly building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you.
After an inspection report
Most replacement work follows a fire door inspection or fire risk assessment. Send us the report and we will price each action, replacement or repair, door by door, so you can prioritise. Our guide to failed inspections explains how to read the findings.
As standard, the work covers:
- Removal and disposal of the old door
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
Fire door law for Caerphilly properties
Caerphilly is in Wales, where new and replacement fire doors are covered by the Building Regulations 2010 as applied in Wales, with the Welsh Approved Document B as guidance. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 also applies, so responsible persons in workplaces and the common parts of blocks must keep fire doors maintained.
One difference from England: regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, with its quarterly and annual fire door checks, does not apply in Wales. Your fire risk assessment sets the checking regime instead, and we work to it.

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.
