What steel fire doors in Perth should include
We provide steel fire doors in Perth (PH2 and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.
Buildings in and around Perth range from small offices to small blocks of flats and light industrial buildings. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.
Plant rooms, bin stores and warehouses in and around Perth often call for steel doorsets that can take knocks and damp. We anchor and seal steel frames in Perth 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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Powder-coated finishes
- Frame anchoring and gap sealing to instructions
- Single and double steel doorsets
- Ratings to suit the wall, including 60 minutes
Fire door law for Perth properties
In Perth, fire doors are specified against Scotland's Technical Handbooks (Section 2: Fire) under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, rather than Approved Document B. Duties in non-domestic premises come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006.
England's regulation 10 does not apply in Scotland. We follow the building's fire risk assessment and, where building work needs a warrant, the local authority's requirements.

Questions from Perth
Is Perth within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Perth in Perth & Kinross and neighbouring towns such as Glenrothes. There is no charge for the survey.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Perth building?
Yes. Send it over and we can often price straight from it, then confirm on site. We report back against the same door references so you can close actions off.
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.
Do steel fire doors need intumescent seals?
Some steel doorsets use intumescent seals and some do not, depending on how they were tested. The certification sets out exactly what is required.
