Getting fire door replacement right in Royal Tunbridge Wells

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

Fire doors in Royal Tunbridge Wells protect escape routes in industrial estates, low-rise blocks of flats and care homes alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.

If your Royal Tunbridge Wells building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. We never leave a Royal Tunbridge Wells opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out.

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.

What you get:

• Removal and disposal of the old door
• Evidence linked back to your inspection report
• Frame repair or replacement where needed
• Assessment of repair versus replacement
