HMO fire doors for Peckham buildings
We provide HMO fire doors in Peckham (SE15 and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.
Buildings in and around Peckham range from shared houses to restaurants and purpose-built blocks of flats. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.
For HMO landlords in Peckham, fire door work often follows a licence application or a council inspection. We can price an HMO in Peckham directly from the council's schedule of works and give you evidence to send back.
What councils typically look for
Licensing and housing officers usually look at bedroom doors, kitchen doors and any doors onto the escape stair. Common requirements include 30-minute doors, self-closers, smoke seals and well-fitted frames. Requirements vary with the size and layout of the HMO and the local authority's approach; our HMO fire door guide sets out the typical expectations.
What you get:
- Self-closers set to close without slamming
- Photo record for licensing and inspections
- Survey of bedroom, kitchen and stair doors
- Intumescent strips and smoke seals
The regulations behind fire doors in Peckham
The rules that apply to fire doors in Peckham are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts. Enforcement of fire safety law in Peckham sits with the London Fire Brigade.
Where a Peckham block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.
Which buildings in Peckham need HMO fire doors?
Landlords, managing agents, facilities teams and homeowners in Peckham can all commission HMO fire doors from us. The usual settings are student lets and shared houses, though single doors for bedsit conversions are just as welcome.

Questions from Peckham
Is Peckham within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Peckham in Greater London and neighbouring towns such as Brixton. There is no charge for the survey.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Peckham building?
Yes. Send it over and we can often price straight from it, then confirm on site. We report back against the same door references so you can close actions off.
Can tenants lock their bedroom doors?
Yes, but they must be able to get out without a key, so thumb-turn locks on the inside are common. The lock must be covered by the door's evidence.
Can you work to a council schedule of works?
Yes. Send us the schedule and we will price each item, carry out the work and give you evidence to send back.
