Flat entrance fire doors for Craigavon buildings
When you book flat entrance fire doors in Craigavon, the aim is simple: doors that close, latch and seal as tested, with records that prove it.
Fire doors in Craigavon protect escape routes in schools, houses with integral garages and industrial estates alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
Flat entrance door programmes in Craigavon 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 Craigavon, whoever is responsible for the doors under the lease.
Who pays and who decides?
Flat entrance doors often sit on the boundary between the leaseholder's flat and the freeholder's building. Ownership depends on the lease, and leaseholder consent, landlord consent and Section 20 consultation can all come into it. We work with freeholders, managing agents, housing providers and individual leaseholders, and our responsibility guide covers the common questions.
On a typical job that means:
- Intumescent and smoke seals, threshold set to evidence
- Resident liaison, photo record and certificate references
- Survey of door, frame, threshold and ironmongery
- Certified FD30S doorset in timber or composite

Questions from Craigavon
Is Craigavon within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Craigavon in County Armagh and neighbouring towns such as Portadown. There is no charge for the survey.
What happens on a survey in Craigavon?
We look at every door in scope: the leaf, frame, gaps, seals, hinges, closer, glazing and how the frame is fixed. You then get a written quote that prices each door separately.
How long does a flat door replacement take?
Typically half a day per door, with the flat secure at the end of the visit. We agree access times with residents in advance and keep the corridor clear while we work.
Can a flat door have a letterbox?
Only if the letterplate is covered by the doorset's test evidence. A standard letterplate cut into a fire door breaks the rating. Many managing agents choose external post boxes instead.
