Integral garage fire doors: our service in Yeadon
Our integral garage fire doors service in Yeadon is simple: a survey, a fixed quote, certified products and an installation finished to the manufacturer's evidence.
Fire doors in Yeadon protect escape routes in light industrial buildings, small blocks of flats and family homes after loft conversions alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
For homes in Yeadon 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 Yeadon, 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
- Product details for building control or your solicitor
- Threshold detailing for smoke control
- Self-closer set gently but positively
The regulations behind fire doors in Yeadon
England's framework applies in Yeadon. Approved Document B guides the fire performance of new and replacement doors under the Building Regulations 2010. Day-to-day duties sit with the responsible person under the Fire Safety Order 2005, and for multi-occupied residential buildings, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties such as giving residents information about fire doors.
For blocks over 11 metres in Yeadon, those regulations require communal fire door checks at least every three months and best-endeavours flat entrance door checks each year. In higher-risk buildings, building work is overseen by the Building Safety Regulator, so we check whether approval is needed before starting.

Questions from Yeadon
Do you cover LS19 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Yeadon including LS19, and nearby towns such as Guiseley and Shipley. 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.
