Integral garage fire doors: our service in Colwyn Bay
Looking for integral garage fire doors in Colwyn Bay? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across Colwyn Bay and the wider Clwyd area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.
Colwyn Bay has a broad mix of buildings, including care homes, small offices and family homes after loft conversions, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
If you are selling a home in Colwyn Bay, we can leave product details for your solicitor along with the door. For homes in Colwyn Bay with an integral garage, the door into the house is one of the few internal doors expected to be fire-rated and self-closing.
What we fit
We fit a certified FD30S doorset or leaf with intumescent and smoke seals, a self-closer set to close and latch the door without slamming, and a threshold detail that keeps the smoke seal effective. We can match the style of your other internal doors where the certified range allows.
Each installation includes:
- Product details for building control or your solicitor
- Intumescent and smoke seals
- Self-closer set gently but positively
- Survey of the opening, threshold and step
Which fire door rules apply in Colwyn Bay?
Colwyn Bay is in Wales, where new and replacement fire doors are covered by the Building Regulations 2010 as applied in Wales, with the Welsh Approved Document B as guidance. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 also applies, so responsible persons in workplaces and the common parts of blocks must keep fire doors maintained.
One difference from England: regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, with its quarterly and annual fire door checks, does not apply in Wales. Your fire risk assessment sets the checking regime instead, and we work to it.

Questions
Do you cover LL29 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Colwyn Bay including LL29, and nearby towns such as Rhyl and Flint. The survey and written quote are free.
Do I need to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to give us access to the doors. For blocks and commercial buildings, a caretaker or site contact is fine; for HMOs and homes, we agree a time with you or your tenants.
Does the garage door need a closer?
Building control will normally expect the door between an integral garage and the house to be self-closing. We fit closers that shut and latch the door gently.
Does my garage door need to be a fire door?
If the garage is integral to the house, Approved Document B in England expects the connecting door to be a fire door with smoke control. Requirements in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are similar in purpose but set out in their own guidance.
