In and around Bognor Regis, fire door work covers everything from low-rise blocks of flats to high-street shops. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Plant rooms, bin stores and warehouses in and around Bognor Regis often call for steel doorsets that can take knocks and damp. For steel fire doors in Bognor Regis we order factory-prepared doorsets so the hardware matches the test evidence exactly.
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
- Frame anchoring and gap sealing to instructions
- Ratings to suit the wall, including 60 minutes
- Locks, closers and panic hardware as specified
Fire door law for Bognor Regis properties
England's framework applies in Bognor Regis. 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 Bognor Regis, 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.

Common questions
Is Bognor Regis within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Bognor Regis in West Sussex and neighbouring towns such as Chichester. There is no charge for the survey.
Do I need to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to give us access to the doors. For blocks and commercial buildings, a caretaker or site contact is fine; for HMOs and homes, we agree a time with you or your tenants.
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.
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.
