Steel fire doors for Worcestershire buildings
Whether your building is in Worcester, Redditch or a smaller place in Worcestershire, we can provide steel fire doors with the same evidence-led approach.
We anchor and seal steel frames in Worcestershire buildings to the manufacturer's instructions and photograph the work before it is covered. For steel fire doors in Worcestershire we order factory-prepared doorsets so the hardware matches the test evidence exactly.
Fire door work in Worcestershire spans housing providers with large estates, individual landlords, businesses and homeowners. We price every job from a survey, never from a list price alone, because the condition of the frames and the hardware makes a real difference.
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.
What the rules say for Worcestershire
England's framework applies in Worcestershire. 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 Worcestershire, 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.
