What certified fire doorsets in Warwickshire should include
Across Warwickshire, from Nuneaton to Rugby, we survey, supply and fit certified fire doorsets for homes, blocks of flats and workplaces.
Every doorset we fit in Warwickshire is handed over with its certificate reference and photographs of the frame fixing and gap sealing. Pre-hung doorsets keep disruption down in occupied buildings in Warwickshire, with less cutting and fewer return visits.
Warwickshire has a mix of buildings, from purpose-built blocks to converted houses and commercial premises. We tailor the programme to the building, not the other way round.
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.
Which fire door rules apply in Warwickshire?
In Warwickshire, 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 Warwickshire 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.

Questions
Do you provide certified fire doorsets across Warwickshire?
Yes. We cover all of Warwickshire, including Nuneaton and Rugby. Surveys and written quotes are free.
Can a doorset be fitted into an existing opening?
Usually, yes. Doorsets are made to fit the structural opening once the old frame is removed. We measure the opening on the survey so the doorset is made to the right size and the gaps to the wall stay within what the evidence allows.
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.
