Flat entrance fire doors in Bedworth

Flat entrance fire doors in Bedworth: what's involved

Looking for flat entrance fire doors in Bedworth? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across Bedworth and the wider Warwickshire area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.

Bedworth has a broad mix of buildings, including houses with integral garages, family homes after loft conversions and small offices, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.

In a block of flats in Bedworth, each flat's front door is what keeps smoke out of the shared corridor, which is why a working closer matters as much as the door. We work with freeholders, managing agents and individual leaseholders in Bedworth, 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:

• Intumescent and smoke seals, threshold set to evidence
• Self-closer set to close and latch
• Survey of door, frame, threshold and ironmongery
• Viewer, numerals and security hardware within the certification

Rules and responsibilities in Bedworth

In Bedworth, 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 Bedworth 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.

Who needs flat entrance fire doors in Bedworth?

From converted houses split into flats to flats above shops, the requirement for flat entrance fire doors in Bedworth comes from the fire strategy or risk assessment for the building. We work from that document, or help you interpret your inspection report, before quoting.
