Integral garage fire doors in Newcastle-under-Lyme, done to the evidence
We provide integral garage fire doors in Newcastle-under-Lyme (ST5 and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.
In and around Newcastle-under-Lyme, fire door work covers everything from industrial units to HMOs. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
For homes in Newcastle-under-Lyme with an integral garage, the door into the house is one of the few internal doors expected to be fire-rated and self-closing. We fit garage fire doors in Newcastle-under-Lyme with closers set to shut gently, so they work without slamming.
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.
What you get:
- Certified FD30S door or doorset
- Intumescent and smoke seals
- Product details for building control or your solicitor
- Survey of the opening, threshold and step
Fire door law for Newcastle-under-Lyme properties
In Newcastle-under-Lyme, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet.
Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Newcastle-under-Lyme building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.
