Steel fire doors for Havant buildings
Looking for steel fire doors in Havant? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across Havant and the wider Hampshire area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.
Havant has a broad mix of buildings, including small blocks of flats, family homes after loft conversions and care homes, and the same fire door principles apply to all of them.
Plant rooms, bin stores and warehouses in and around Havant often call for steel doorsets that can take knocks and damp. We anchor and seal steel frames in Havant buildings to the manufacturer's instructions and photograph the work before it is covered.
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.
On a typical job that means:
- Powder-coated finishes
- Locks, closers and panic hardware as specified
- Ratings to suit the wall, including 60 minutes
- Frame anchoring and gap sealing to instructions
Fire door law for Havant properties
England's framework applies in Havant. Approved Document B guides the fire performance of new and replacement doors under the Building Regulations 2010. Day-to-day duties sit with the responsible person under the Fire Safety Order 2005, and for multi-occupied residential buildings, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties such as giving residents information about fire doors.
For blocks over 11 metres in Havant, those regulations require communal fire door checks at least every three months and best-endeavours flat entrance door checks each year. In higher-risk buildings, building work is overseen by the Building Safety Regulator, so we check whether approval is needed before starting.
