What flat entrance fire doors in Wiltshire should include
Across Wiltshire, from Swindon to Salisbury, we survey, supply and fit flat entrance fire doors for homes, blocks of flats and workplaces.
We work with freeholders, managing agents and individual leaseholders in Wiltshire, whoever is responsible for the doors under the lease. Flat entrance door programmes in Wiltshire are scheduled around residents, with access agreed in advance and each flat left secure the same day.
Wherever your building is in Wiltshire, the fire safety duties come from national rules, and our installation standard is the same.
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.
Which fire door rules apply in Wiltshire?
In Wiltshire, 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 Wiltshire 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.

Common questions
Do you provide flat entrance fire doors across Wiltshire?
Yes. We cover all of Wiltshire, including Swindon and Salisbury. Surveys and written quotes are free.
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.
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.
