What riser and cupboard fire doors in Mid Glamorgan should include
Our riser and cupboard fire doors service runs throughout Mid Glamorgan. Main towns include Rhondda, Tonypandy and Bridgend, and we cover the smaller places in between.
We match riser doors in Mid Glamorgan to the rating of the riser enclosure, not to whatever was there before. Riser and meter cupboard doors in Mid Glamorgan blocks are easy to overlook until an inspection flags them.
Managing agents, landlords, schools, care providers, businesses and homeowners in Mid Glamorgan can all use one team for survey, supply, installation and evidence. We plan work around occupants and hand over a record for every door.
Why riser doors get overlooked
Service riser doors are small, often hidden and rarely opened, so they are easy to forget until an inspection finds them. Common faults include cheap access panels that are not fire rated, missing seals, broken locks and doors that have been removed for access and never refitted. A riser runs through every floor, so a weak door can let fire or smoke bypass the building's compartments.
What the rules say for Mid Glamorgan
Mid Glamorgan 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.

Fire stopping is a separate specialist trade. We record anything we see while fitting doors and can coordinate with your fire stopping contractor.
