Steel fire doors in Maesteg, done to the evidence
We provide steel fire doors in Maesteg (CF34 and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.
Fire doors in Maesteg protect escape routes in houses with integral garages, schools and small blocks of flats alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
Plant rooms, bin stores and warehouses in and around Maesteg often call for steel doorsets that can take knocks and damp. We anchor and seal steel frames in Maesteg buildings to the manufacturer's instructions and photograph the work before it is covered.
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
- Factory-prepared hinges and hardware
- Locks, closers and panic hardware as specified
- Frame anchoring and gap sealing to instructions
Which fire door rules apply in Maesteg?
Maesteg 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.
Where steel fire doors fit in Maesteg
From warehouses to plant rooms, the requirement for steel fire doors in Maesteg comes from the fire strategy or risk assessment for the building. We work from that document, or help you interpret your inspection report, before quoting.
