Integral garage fire doors: our service in Reigate
If you need integral garage fire doors in Reigate, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.
Buildings in and around Reigate range from schools to small blocks of flats and light industrial buildings. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.
For homes in Reigate with an integral garage, the door into the house is one of the few internal doors expected to be fire-rated and self-closing. If you are selling a home in Reigate, 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.
On a typical job that means:
- Product details for building control or your solicitor
- Self-closer set gently but positively
- Survey of the opening, threshold and step
- Intumescent and smoke seals
Which fire door rules apply in Reigate?
The rules that apply to fire doors in Reigate 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 Reigate 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.
