Steel fire doors for Keighley buildings
When you book steel fire doors in Keighley, the aim is simple: doors that close, latch and seal as tested, with records that prove it.
In and around Keighley, fire door work covers everything from care homes to high-street shops. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Plant rooms, bin stores and warehouses in and around Keighley often call for steel doorsets that can take knocks and damp. For steel fire doors in Keighley we order factory-prepared doorsets so the hardware matches the test evidence exactly.
How installation differs from timber
Steel frames are fixed with the anchors and fixing centres the manufacturer specifies, and frames are often grouted or packed according to the instructions. Steel doors usually arrive with hinges and hardware preparations made in the factory, so the hardware set must be ordered correctly at the outset. BS 8214:2026 now covers steel, metal and composite doors as well as timber, including how to seal them to the surrounding structure.
What you get:
- Factory-prepared hinges and hardware
- Single and double steel doorsets
- Ratings to suit the wall, including 60 minutes
- Frame anchoring and gap sealing to instructions

Yes. We cover Keighley including BD21, and nearby towns such as Shipley and Guiseley. The survey and written quote are free.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Keighley 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.
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.
Are steel fire doors better than timber?
Not better, just suited to different places. Steel doors are tougher and resist damp and impact, so they suit plant rooms and industrial areas. Timber doors are more common in residential and office interiors.
