Integral garage fire doors for Cornwall buildings
Whether your building is in Redruth, Falmouth or a smaller place in Cornwall, we can provide integral garage fire doors with the same evidence-led approach.
If you are selling a home in Cornwall, we can leave product details for your solicitor along with the door. We fit garage fire doors in Cornwall with closers set to shut gently, so they work without slamming.
Cornwall has a mix of buildings, from purpose-built blocks to converted houses and commercial premises. We tailor the programme to the building, not the other way round.
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.
Which fire door rules apply in Cornwall?
The rules that apply to fire doors in Cornwall 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.
Where a Cornwall 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.

Will building control accept the door?
