What flat entrance fire doors in Lisburn should include
Our flat entrance fire doors service covers Lisburn and the wider County Antrim area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.
Around Lisburn, houses with integral garages, low-rise blocks of flats and industrial estates all depend on fire doors that close, latch and seal. We survey each opening and tell you plainly which doors need work and which don't.
Flat entrance door programmes in Lisburn are scheduled around residents, with access agreed in advance and each flat left secure the same day. We work with freeholders, managing agents and individual leaseholders in Lisburn, whoever is responsible for the doors under the lease.
What goes into a compliant flat entrance doorset?
We fit certified FD30S doorsets with intumescent and smoke seals, a self-closing device that closes and latches the door from any angle, fire-tested hinges and a lock or latch covered by the certification. Door viewers, spy holes, letterplates, numerals and security hardware can only be fitted if they are part of the doorset's evidence. Where residents want a letterplate, we use one that is covered by the test evidence or recommend a separate post box.
What you get:
- Survey of door, frame, threshold and ironmongery
- Certified FD30S doorset in timber or composite
- Self-closer set to close and latch
- Viewer, numerals and security hardware within the certification
Fire door law for Lisburn properties
Lisburn is in Northern Ireland, where fire doors are covered by the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012 and Technical Booklet E on fire safety. Duties in non-domestic premises come from the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010.
The English regulation 10 checking regime does not apply here, so the fire risk assessment sets how often doors in Lisburn are checked. We hand over evidence that supports it.

Landlords, managing agents, facilities teams and homeowners in Lisburn can all commission flat entrance fire doors from us. The usual settings are purpose-built blocks of flats and flats above shops, though single doors for converted houses split into flats are just as welcome.

Who is responsible for replacing flat front doors?
It depends on the lease. Sometimes the leaseholder owns the door, sometimes the freeholder does. Either way, the replacement has to meet the building's fire strategy, so we can work with whoever commissions it.
Can residents choose the colour of their front door?
Often, within the range the doorset manufacturer offers and within any rules the freeholder sets for the corridor. Factory finishes are better than site painting, which can clog seals and hide labels.
