Fire door replacement for Cannock buildings
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Cannock, we offer fire door replacement with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
Cannock has a broad mix of buildings, including schools, family homes after loft conversions and houses with integral garages, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
We never leave a Cannock opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out. If a door in your Cannock building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you.
After an inspection report
Most replacement work follows a fire door inspection or fire risk assessment. Send us the report and we will price each action, replacement or repair, door by door, so you can prioritise. Our guide to failed inspections explains how to read the findings.
Each installation includes:
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Removal and disposal of the old door
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
What the rules say for Cannock
England's framework applies in Cannock. 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 Cannock, 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.

Questions from Cannock
Is Cannock within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Cannock in Staffordshire and neighbouring towns such as Burntwood. There is no charge for the survey.
How quickly can you survey in Cannock?
It depends on the number of doors and access, but we offer survey dates as soon as we reply to your enquiry. If an inspection has found urgent safety issues, tell us and we'll prioritise.
Can you work from my fire risk assessment?
Yes. Send us the actions and we will price each fire door item and report back against the same references.
How do I know if a fire door needs replacing?
A competent inspection will tell you. Typical reasons are serious damage, gaps that cannot be corrected, no evidence the door is a fire door, or unapproved alterations such as new holes or glazing.
