Fire door replacement: our service in Rugeley
If you need fire door replacement in Rugeley, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.
Fire doors in Rugeley protect escape routes in houses with integral garages, small offices and light industrial buildings alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
If a door in your Rugeley building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you. If your Rugeley building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references.
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:
- Removal and disposal of the old door
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
Rules and responsibilities in Rugeley
The rules that apply to fire doors in Rugeley 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 Rugeley 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.
