Fire door replacement: our service in Wishaw
From the ML2 postcode district outwards, we take on fire door replacement across Wishaw for homes, blocks and workplaces.
Wishaw has a broad mix of buildings, including care homes, houses with integral garages and small blocks of flats, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
We never leave a Wishaw opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out. If a door in your Wishaw 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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Removal and disposal of the old door
Rules and responsibilities in Wishaw
Scottish rules apply to fire doors in Wishaw. The Technical Handbooks under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004 set the standard for new and altered doors, and the local authority issues building warrants where they are needed. Workplaces and other non-domestic premises are covered by the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005.
Residential common parts in Wishaw are treated differently from England, so we check the fire risk assessment and any landlord or factor requirements before specifying work.
