Loft conversion fire doors: our service in Willenhall
When you book loft conversion fire doors in Willenhall, the aim is simple: doors that close, latch and seal as tested, with records that prove it.
Willenhall has a broad mix of buildings, including light industrial buildings, schools and small blocks of flats, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
A loft conversion in Willenhall that adds a new storey often brings a building control requirement for fire doors on rooms off the stair. For homes in Willenhall, we match fire doors to your existing style wherever certified options allow.
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.
What you get:
- Check of which openings need fire doors
- Fire-tested hinges and intumescent strips as required
- Frame repairs or new linings where needed
- Product details for building control
