What certified fire doorsets in Stourbridge should include
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Stourbridge, we offer certified fire doorsets with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
In and around Stourbridge, fire door work covers everything from HMOs to care homes. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Every doorset we fit in Stourbridge is handed over with its certificate reference and photographs of the frame fixing and gap sealing. Doorsets suit refurbishment programmes in Stourbridge, where several openings can be measured, ordered and fitted in one planned sequence.
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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Certificate references and photo record per opening
- Installation to the manufacturer's instructions
- Doorset selection to rating, size and use
- Frame fixing and frame-to-wall gap sealing
Fire door law for Stourbridge properties
England's framework applies in Stourbridge. 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 Stourbridge, 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
Do you cover DY8 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Stourbridge including DY8, and nearby towns such as Brierley Hill and Kingswinford. The survey and written quote are free.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Stourbridge 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 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.
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.
