Certified fire doorsets in Gwent, done to the evidence
Our certified fire doorsets service runs throughout Gwent. Main towns include Newport (Gwent), Cwmbran and Pontypool, and we cover the smaller places in between.
Every doorset we fit in Gwent is handed over with its certificate reference and photographs of the frame fixing and gap sealing. Doorsets suit refurbishment programmes in Gwent, where several openings can be measured, ordered and fitted in one planned sequence.
Wherever your building is in Gwent, the fire safety duties come from national rules, and our installation standard is the same.
What does third-party certification mean?
Third-party certification means an independent body has checked the product's test evidence and audits the factory that makes it. Certified products carry a label or plug on the door edge and a certificate you can check. Buyers often look for schemes such as BWF Certifire or BM TRADA Q-Mark when choosing products. Our guide to certified doorsets explains how to read the label and certificate.
The regulations behind fire doors in Gwent
Fire door work in Gwent follows Welsh building regulations and the Welsh Approved Document B. The Fire Safety Order 2005 covers workplaces and the shared parts of residential buildings here too, placing the duty on the responsible person.
The English regulation 10 checking regime does not extend to Gwent, so how often doors are checked comes from the fire risk assessment. We hand over evidence that fits whatever regime your assessor sets.

Certified fire doorsets questions
Do you provide certified fire doorsets across Gwent?
Yes. We cover all of Gwent, including Newport (Gwent) and Cwmbran. Surveys and written quotes are free.
How long do doorsets take to arrive?
Lead times depend on the manufacturer, size, finish and ironmongery. Standard sizes can be quick; bespoke sizes and finishes take longer. We give you the lead time with the quote and confirm it at order.
Do doorsets come painted?
They can be supplied primed, factory painted, veneered, laminated or with a composite skin, depending on the product. Factory finishes avoid painting over seals and labels on site.
