Certified acoustic fire doors for Wigan
We fit acoustic fire doorsets in Wigan and the rest of Greater Manchester. The process is simple: we survey and measure each opening, propose a certified doorset for it, and give you a fixed price. Fitting is booked once the doorsets are made, usually with no door left out of action overnight.
Where possible we combine Wigan surveys with other visits in Greater Manchester, such as Hindley and Ashton-in-Makerfield, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
What the law says in Wigan
In Wigan, 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.
