Steel fire doors: our service in Flint
If you need steel fire doors in Flint, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.
Flint has a broad mix of buildings, including light industrial buildings, houses with integral garages and family homes after loft conversions, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
We anchor and seal steel frames in Flint buildings to the manufacturer's instructions and photograph the work before it is covered. Plant rooms, bin stores and warehouses in and around Flint often call for steel doorsets that can take knocks and damp.
Security and finishes
Steel fire doors can combine fire resistance with security features such as heavier locks and anti-jemmy details, within the evidence. They are usually powder coated in a range of colours, which gives a hard-wearing finish for back-of-house areas.
What you get:
- Single and double steel doorsets
- Frame anchoring and gap sealing to instructions
- Factory-prepared hinges and hardware
- Powder-coated finishes
Rules and responsibilities in Flint
Fire door work in Flint follows Welsh building regulations and the Welsh Approved Document B. The Fire Safety Order 2005 covers workplaces and the shared parts of residential buildings here too, placing the duty on the responsible person.
The English regulation 10 checking regime does not extend to Flint, so how often doors are checked comes from the fire risk assessment. We hand over evidence that fits whatever regime your assessor sets.

Questions
Do you cover CH6 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Flint including CH6, and nearby towns such as Deeside and Buckley. The survey and written quote are free.
What happens on a survey in Flint?
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.
Can steel fire doors be painted?
They are usually supplied powder coated. Repainting on site is possible but must avoid covering seals and labels, and should follow the manufacturer's guidance.
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.
