Integral garage fire doors: our service in Renfrew
When you book integral garage fire doors in Renfrew, the aim is simple: doors that close, latch and seal as tested, with records that prove it.
In and around Renfrew, fire door work covers everything from care homes to light industrial buildings. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
We fit garage fire doors in Renfrew with closers set to shut gently, so they work without slamming. If you are selling a home in Renfrew, we can leave product details for your solicitor along with the door.
Why the garage door matters
Fires that start in garages can grow quickly and fill a hallway with smoke. The door between the garage and the house is the barrier that buys time for everyone inside to get out. It is one of the few doors inside a home that is expected to be both fire-rated and self-closing, and it often has a step or threshold that needs careful detailing.
Each installation includes:
- Self-closer set gently but positively
- Intumescent and smoke seals
- Threshold detailing for smoke control
- Product details for building control or your solicitor
The regulations behind fire doors in Renfrew
In Renfrew, fire doors are specified against Scotland's Technical Handbooks (Section 2: Fire) under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, rather than Approved Document B. Duties in non-domestic premises come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006.
England's regulation 10 does not apply in Scotland. We follow the building's fire risk assessment and, where building work needs a warrant, the local authority's requirements.

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.
