What riser and cupboard fire doors in Burnley should include
Looking for riser and cupboard fire doors in Burnley? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across Burnley and the wider Lancashire area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.

Riser and meter cupboard doors in Burnley blocks are easy to overlook until an inspection flags them. While fitting riser doors in Burnley, 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:
- Single and double flush configurations
- Fire-rated riser and cupboard doorsets
- Locks and keep-locked arrangements as specified
- Signage as required
Fire door law for Burnley properties
The rules that apply to fire doors in Burnley are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts.
Where a Burnley block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.

Questions from Burnley
Is Burnley within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Burnley in Lancashire and neighbouring towns such as Nelson. There is no charge for the survey.
What happens on a survey in Burnley?
We look at every door in scope: the leaf, frame, gaps, seals, hinges, closer, glazing and how the frame is fixed. You then get a written quote that prices each door separately.
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.
Can I use a standard access panel for a riser?
Only if it is a fire-rated product with evidence for the wall rating. Many ordinary access panels and cupboard doors are not fire rated.
