Riser and cupboard fire doors in Whitefield

Riser and cupboard fire doors for Whitefield buildings

Our riser and cupboard fire doors service in Whitefield is simple: a survey, a fixed quote, certified products and an installation finished to the manufacturer's evidence.

Fire doors in Whitefield protect escape routes in houses with integral garages, small blocks of flats and care homes alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.

We match riser doors in Whitefield to the rating of the riser enclosure, not to whatever was there before. While fitting riser doors in Whitefield, 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:

• Signage as required
• Record of any fire stopping concerns found
• Seals and frame gap sealing
• Fire-rated riser and cupboard doorsets
