Where steel fire doors are the better choice
Steel doorsets cope with impact, damp and rough handling better than most timber doors. They are a natural fit for plant and boiler rooms, refuse stores, car park lobbies, workshops and warehouses. Many steel doorsets are available in ratings of 60 minutes and beyond where the test evidence supports it, which suits the higher-rated walls around plant spaces.
What you get:
- Single and double steel doorsets
- Frame anchoring and gap sealing to instructions
- Ratings to suit the wall, including 60 minutes
- Locks, closers and panic hardware as specified

Common questions
Is Colwyn Bay within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Colwyn Bay in Clwyd and neighbouring towns such as Rhyl. 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.
Are steel fire doors better than timber?
Not better, just suited to different places. Steel doors are tougher and resist damp and impact, so they suit plant rooms and industrial areas. Timber doors are more common in residential and office interiors.
How long do steel doorsets take to make?
Steel doorsets are usually made to order with factory-prepared hardware, so allow a few weeks. We confirm the lead time with your quote.
