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.
Each installation includes:
- Single and double steel doorsets
- Powder-coated finishes
- Ratings to suit the wall, including 60 minutes
- Locks, closers and panic hardware as specified
Which fire door rules apply in Burgess Hill?
The rules that apply to fire doors in Burgess Hill 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 Burgess Hill 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.
Which buildings in Burgess Hill need steel fire doors?
From warehouses to plant rooms, the requirement for steel fire doors in Burgess Hill 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.
