Fire door replacement: our service in Dudley
When you book fire door replacement in Dudley, the aim is simple: doors that close, latch and seal as tested, with records that prove it.
Fire doors in Dudley protect escape routes in care homes, purpose-built flats and industrial units alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
If your Dudley building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. We never leave a Dudley opening without a door; the new one is on site before the old one comes out.
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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Frame repair or replacement where needed
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
Fire door law for Dudley properties
England's framework applies in Dudley. 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 Dudley, 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
Is Dudley within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Dudley in West Midlands and neighbouring towns such as Brierley Hill. There is no charge for the survey.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Dudley building?
Yes. Send it over and we can often price straight from it, then confirm on site. We report back against the same door references so you can close actions off.
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.
Can you replace just the door and keep the frame?
Yes, if the frame is sound and compatible with the new leaf's certification. If not, we replace the whole doorset.
