What fire door replacement in Pontypridd should include
Our fire door replacement service in Pontypridd is simple: a survey, a fixed quote, certified products and an installation finished to the manufacturer's evidence.
Around Pontypridd, small blocks of flats, light industrial buildings and family homes after loft conversions 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 your Pontypridd building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. We never leave a Pontypridd 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.
On a typical job that means:
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Removal and disposal of the old door
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Certified leaf or full doorset
