Integral garage fire doors in Birmingham, done to the evidence

Our integral garage fire doors service in Birmingham is simple: a survey, a fixed quote, certified products and an installation finished to the manufacturer's evidence.

Buildings in and around Birmingham range from mixed-use office buildings to hotels and clinics. 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 Birmingham 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 Birmingham, we can leave product details for your solicitor along with the door.

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.

What you get:

  • Certified FD30S door or doorset
  • Self-closer set gently but positively
  • Threshold detailing for smoke control
  • Intumescent and smoke seals

Which fire door rules apply in Birmingham?

Fire doors in Birmingham fall under English rules. New and replacement doors are covered by the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. In workplaces and the common parts of blocks, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, as clarified by the Fire Safety Act 2021, puts the duty on the responsible person to keep fire doors suitable and maintained.

For residential buildings in Birmingham above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 adds checks: communal fire doors at least every three months and best-endeavours checks of flat entrance doors at least every twelve months. Higher-risk buildings of at least 18 metres or seven storeys also come under the Building Safety Act 2022, where works may need approval from the Building Safety Regulator.

Common questions

Do you cover B3 and nearby postcodes?

Yes. We cover Birmingham including B3, and nearby towns such as Aston and Smethwick. The survey and written quote are free.

Do I need to be there for the survey?

Someone needs to give us access to the doors. For blocks and commercial buildings, a caretaker or site contact is fine; for HMOs and homes, we agree a time with you or your tenants.

Does the garage door need a closer?

Building control will normally expect the door between an integral garage and the house to be self-closing. We fit closers that shut and latch the door gently.

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.
