Fire door replacement: our service in Tynemouth
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Tynemouth, we offer fire door replacement with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
Tynemouth has a broad mix of buildings, including schools, houses with integral garages and low-rise blocks of flats, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
We never leave a Tynemouth opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out. If a door in your Tynemouth building can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you.
Minimal disruption
We never leave an opening without a door. Replacements are scheduled so the new door is on site before the old one comes out, and each opening is finished, tested and photographed the same day wherever possible.
What you get:
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Evidence linked back to your inspection report
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
Which fire door rules apply in Tynemouth?
Fire doors in Tynemouth fall under English rules. New and replacement doors are covered by the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. In workplaces and the common parts of blocks, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, as clarified by the Fire Safety Act 2021, puts the duty on the responsible person to keep fire doors suitable and maintained.
For residential buildings in Tynemouth above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 adds checks: communal fire doors at least every three months and best-endeavours checks of flat entrance doors at least every twelve months. Higher-risk buildings of at least 18 metres or seven storeys also come under the Building Safety Act 2022, where works may need approval from the Building Safety Regulator.
Which buildings in Tynemouth need fire door replacement?
Landlords, managing agents, facilities teams and homeowners in Tynemouth can all commission fire door replacement from us. The usual settings are schools and blocks of flats, though single doors for care homes are just as welcome.
