Steel fire doors: our service in Nottinghamshire
We provide steel fire doors across Nottinghamshire, covering 10 towns and 28 postcode districts, including Nottingham, Mansfield and Worksop.
We anchor and seal steel frames in Nottinghamshire buildings to the manufacturer's instructions and photograph the work before it is covered. Plant rooms, bin stores and warehouses in and around Nottinghamshire often call for steel doorsets that can take knocks and damp.
Managing agents, landlords, schools, care providers, businesses and homeowners in Nottinghamshire can all use one team for survey, supply, installation and evidence. We plan work around occupants and hand over a record for every door.
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.
The regulations behind fire doors in Nottinghamshire
The rules that apply to fire doors in Nottinghamshire are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts.
Where a Nottinghamshire block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.
