Acoustic fire doors in Finchley: how we work
Fire Rated Doors supplies and fits acoustic fire doors in Finchley, Greater London. Whether it's a single replacement or every door in a block, we start by surveying the openings and end with a handover pack listing each doorset and its certificate reference.
Finchley is about 7 miles from London. Wherever your building is in N3, we arrange survey and fitting dates around access and occupancy.
Which rules apply in Finchley?
Because Finchley is in England, the starting point is Approved Document B for the specification and the Fire Safety Order 2005 for ongoing duties. Blocks with a storey above 11 metres also fall under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: communal fire doors checked at least every three months, flat front doors at least every year.
