Loft conversion fire doors: our service in South Yorkshire
Across South Yorkshire, from Sheffield to Rotherham, we survey, supply and fit loft conversion fire doors for homes, blocks of flats and workplaces.
For homes in South Yorkshire, we match fire doors to your existing style wherever certified options allow. A loft conversion in South Yorkshire that adds a new storey often brings a building control requirement for fire doors on rooms off the stair.
Wherever your building is in South Yorkshire, the fire safety duties come from national rules, and our installation standard is the same.
Working with your builder and building control
We can work as a subcontractor to your loft conversion builder or directly for you. We fit doors to match your existing style where certified options exist, and leave product details for building control. Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own guidance on escape from upper floors; we check which applies to your home.
The regulations behind fire doors in South Yorkshire
Fire doors in South Yorkshire 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 South Yorkshire 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.

Questions
Do you provide loft conversion fire doors across South Yorkshire?
Yes. We cover all of South Yorkshire, including Sheffield and Rotherham. Surveys and written quotes are free.
Can you match my existing doors?
Certified fire doors come in many styles, including panelled and cottage designs, so a close match is usually possible.
Can I just add intumescent strips to my existing doors?
Generally no. A standard internal door is not a fire door, and strips alone will not make it one. Existing doors need to be replaced with certified fire doors.
