Integral garage fire doors for Swansea buildings
If you need integral garage fire doors in Swansea, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.
Around Swansea, mixed-use office buildings, converted flats and care homes all depend on fire doors that close, latch and seal. We survey each opening and tell you plainly which doors need work and which don't.
If you are selling a home in Swansea, we can leave product details for your solicitor along with the door. For homes in Swansea with an integral garage, the door into the house is one of the few internal doors expected to be fire-rated and self-closing.
When you might need a new garage door
The usual triggers are building control flagging the door during a conversion or extension, a house sale survey raising it, or the discovery that the original door has been swapped for a standard internal door. Some garage conversions remove the need altogether; others create new requirements. Our guide to fire doors in houses explains when they are needed.
As standard, the work covers:
- Product details for building control or your solicitor
- Survey of the opening, threshold and step
- Intumescent and smoke seals
- Certified FD30S door or doorset
What the rules say for Swansea
Swansea 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.
Which buildings in Swansea need integral garage fire doors?
The need for integral garage fire doors usually arises in homes being sold or new-build homes, and sometimes homes being extended. In Swansea we can work for you directly or alongside your builder, and single doors are as welcome as whole-house jobs.

Questions
Do you cover SA1 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Swansea including SA1, and nearby towns such as Briton Ferry and Gorseinon. The survey and written quote are free.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Swansea building?
Yes. Send it over and we can often price straight from it, then confirm on site. We report back against the same door references so you can close actions off.
Will building control accept the door?
We supply certified products and leave product and certificate details so your building control body or solicitor can see what was fitted. The final decision is theirs.
Can it match my other doors?
Often, yes. Many certified ranges include panelled and flush styles in finishes that blend with standard internal doors.
