Our Chelsea supply and fit service
Getting acoustic fire doors right in Chelsea means choosing a certified doorset for each opening and fitting it exactly as tested. That's the whole service: survey, schedule, certified doorset, careful installation and the paperwork to prove it.
Chelsea is about 2 miles from London; we cover both, along with Battersea, Fulham and Pimlico.
Which rules apply in Chelsea?
In Chelsea, as across England, Approved Document B governs new work and the Fire Safety Order 2005 governs existing premises. Note that Approved Document B is removing the BS 476 fire-resistance test references on 2 September 2029, so specifications are moving to EN classifications such as E30 Sa.
Guide prices in Chelsea
Expect roughly £1,100–£2,000 per single doorset for acoustic fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your Chelsea quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
Central and inner London work can cost a little more where parking, loading restrictions or out-of-hours access apply; we show any access costs as a separate line.
We show each door's price separately, so if budget is tight you can phase the work and start with the doors your fire risk assessment prioritises.
Typical uses in Chelsea
Wherever they are in Chelsea, acoustic fire doors are most often specified for medical consulting rooms and studios and music rooms.
London has the UK's largest concentration of purpose-built flats and high-rise residential blocks, so flat entrance doors, communal corridor doors and regulation 10 checks drive much of the demand.

Questions about acoustic fire doors in Chelsea
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Chelsea.
Which rules do acoustic fire doors in Chelsea need to meet?
They are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Chelsea?
Yes. We phase work in occupied buildings and keep escape routes available. Each door is planned to be removed and replaced the same day; if that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.
