What fire door replacement in Crawley should include
When you book fire door replacement in Crawley, the aim is simple: doors that close, latch and seal as tested, with records that prove it.
Fire doors in Crawley protect escape routes in purpose-built flats, offices and industrial units alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
If your Crawley building has an inspection report or fire risk assessment, we quote against the same door references. If a door in your Crawley 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:
- Removal and disposal of the old door
- Certified leaf or full doorset
- Seals, hinges, closer and latch to certification
- Assessment of repair versus replacement
Which fire door rules apply in Crawley?
In Crawley, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet.
Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Crawley building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.
Who needs fire door replacement in Crawley?
From care homes to HMOs, the requirement for fire door replacement in Crawley comes from the fire strategy or risk assessment for the building. We work from that document, or help you interpret your inspection report, before quoting.
