Riser and cupboard fire doors in Wrexham, done to the evidence
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Wrexham, we offer riser and cupboard fire doors with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
Around Wrexham, industrial estates, HMOs and low-rise blocks of flats 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.
We match riser doors in Wrexham to the rating of the riser enclosure, not to whatever was there before. While fitting riser doors in Wrexham, we photograph any gaps in fire stopping we can see and pass them on to you.
The fire stopping behind the door
The door is only half the picture. Inside the riser, the services passing through each floor must be fire stopped. That is a separate specialist task. Where we find gaps or missing fire stopping while fitting riser doors, we record it and flag it to you so it can be addressed.
On a typical job that means:
- Record of any fire stopping concerns found
- Single and double flush configurations
- Fire-rated riser and cupboard doorsets
- Locks and keep-locked arrangements as specified
The regulations behind fire doors in Wrexham
Wrexham 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.

Questions
Is Wrexham within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Wrexham in Clwyd and neighbouring towns such as Rhosllannerchrugog. There is no charge for the survey.
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.
What rating should a riser door be?
It should match the fire resistance the strategy requires for the riser enclosure, commonly 30 or 60 minutes. We confirm it before ordering.
Do riser doors need closers?
Not if they are kept locked shut and the fire strategy allows it; they should then be labelled accordingly. Cupboards that are opened regularly normally need self-closers.
