What fire door replacement in Wallasey should include
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Wallasey, we offer fire door replacement with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
In and around Wallasey, fire door work covers everything from family homes after loft conversions to HMOs. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
If your Wallasey building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. If a door in your Wallasey 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:
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Removal and disposal of the old door
Fire door law for Wallasey properties
England's framework applies in Wallasey. Approved Document B guides the fire performance of new and replacement doors under the Building Regulations 2010. Day-to-day duties sit with the responsible person under the Fire Safety Order 2005, and for multi-occupied residential buildings, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties such as giving residents information about fire doors.
For blocks over 11 metres in Wallasey, those regulations require communal fire door checks at least every three months and best-endeavours flat entrance door checks each year. In higher-risk buildings, building work is overseen by the Building Safety Regulator, so we check whether approval is needed before starting.
