Riser and cupboard fire doors in Kingston upon Hull

Riser and cupboard fire doors: our service in Kingston upon Hull

Our riser and cupboard fire doors service covers Kingston upon Hull and the wider East Riding of Yorkshire area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.

Fire doors in Kingston upon Hull protect escape routes in student accommodation, converted flats and shared houses alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.

We match riser doors in Kingston upon Hull to the rating of the riser enclosure, not to whatever was there before. While fitting riser doors in Kingston upon Hull, 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.

What you get:

• Locks and keep-locked arrangements as specified
• Seals and frame gap sealing
• Record of any fire stopping concerns found
• Fire-rated riser and cupboard doorsets

Which fire door rules apply in Kingston upon Hull?

In Kingston upon Hull, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet.

Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Kingston upon Hull building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.
