HMO fire doors for Bristol buildings
We provide HMO fire doors across Bristol, covering 14 postcode districts from BS1 to BS99.
We can price an HMO in Bristol directly from the council's schedule of works and give you evidence to send back. Closers we fit in Bristol HMOs are set to close and latch without slamming, so tenants are less tempted to disconnect them.
Fire door work in Bristol spans housing providers with large estates, individual landlords, businesses and homeowners. We price every job from a survey, never from a list price alone, because the condition of the frames and the hardware makes a real difference.
Fitting around tenants
HMO work happens in people's homes. We agree access with you and your tenants, work room by room, and leave every bedroom lockable at the end of the day. Where thumb-turn locks are needed so occupants can get out without a key, we fit ones that are covered by the door's evidence.
Which fire door rules apply in Bristol?
England's framework applies in Bristol. 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 Bristol, 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.
