Steel fire doors in Brighouse, done to the evidence
From the HD6 postcode district outwards, we take on steel fire doors across Brighouse for homes, blocks and workplaces.
In and around Brighouse, fire door work covers everything from family homes after loft conversions to small offices. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Plant rooms, bin stores and warehouses in and around Brighouse often call for steel doorsets that can take knocks and damp. We anchor and seal steel frames in Brighouse 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:
- Factory-prepared hinges and hardware
- Frame anchoring and gap sealing to instructions
- Single and double steel doorsets
- Ratings to suit the wall, including 60 minutes
The regulations behind fire doors in Brighouse
England's framework applies in Brighouse. 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 Brighouse, 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.
