Fire door replacement for Fleetwood buildings
Our fire door replacement service covers Fleetwood and the wider Lancashire area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.
Around Fleetwood, light industrial buildings, family homes after loft conversions and schools all depend on fire doors that close, latch and seal. We survey each opening and tell you plainly which doors need work and which don't.
If a door in your Fleetwood building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you. If your Fleetwood building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references.
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
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Removal and disposal of the old door
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
The regulations behind fire doors in Fleetwood
The rules that apply to fire doors in Fleetwood are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts.
Where a Fleetwood block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.
